JDK 7
7u4 b21Fixed
Description
After installing JDK 7u4 on Mac the Apple's Java Preferences dialog lists Oracle's JDK as OpenJDK 7 and Vendor as UNDEFINED

It should be Java SE 7 and vendor should be Oracle Corporation, like in our docs: http://content.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk-for-mac-readme-1564562.html

This current naming is coming from Info.plist set after JDK installation
Comments

SUGGESTED FIX There are build variables to set which govern these values in the Info.plist BUNDLE_VENDOR="Oracle Corporation" BUNDLE_INFO_JDK="Java SE 7" (according to an email from scott.kovatch)
