Why does sonar-scanner force the usage of the embedded JRE?

[NicoB (Nicolas Bontoux)]

Hi David,

@racodond

See below extract from the latest version downloaded from https://docs.sonarqube.org/display/SCAN/Analyzing+with+SonarQube+Scanner:

The are multiple flavours distributed on this page. Notably the Windows/Linux/Mac ones that do have an embedded JRE, and that’s on purpose to facilitate adoption/usage.

The Any flavour is the one that doesn’t have an embedded JRE, as clearly stated:

*This package expects that a JVM is already installed on the system - with same Java requirements as the SonarQube server.
