Description Alexander Pepin 2009-05-21 16:43:29 UTC
Even if SunStudio is not available (not included into tool collection) user is allowed to choose SunStudio data provider
in project properties and only after trying to open detailed view s(he) will be informed that SunStudio Tool Collection
not found.
Comment 1 Maria Tishkova 2009-05-21 16:57:56 UTC
Please suggest the UI decision 
Comment 2 Maria Tishkova 2009-09-15 15:35:34 UTC
Alexander please suggest the changes you would like to see here.

Now we allow to use SunStudio to encourage user to download SunStudio (the message will be displayed in indicators and
in details)
Comment 3 Maria Tishkova 2009-09-15 16:18:03 UTC
this is a regression from 6.7 version
Comment 4 Thomas Preisler 2009-10-16 06:31:13 UTC
Now Sun Studio toolchain is always available on Linux (via one-click) download so I think it makes sense to always have it as a choice.
Comment 5 Thomas Preisler 2009-10-24 05:46:41 UTC
Now Sun Studio is always present in the tool chain on Linux (see 171465 Sun Studio toolchain to be always present on Linux) so it makes sense to also be 
able to select the SS configuration. Will close as WONTFIX. Please reopen if you think it doesn't work well.
