Description vbrabant 2004-07-04 12:30:20 UTC 
After installing NetBeans via the Installer, it
would be nice if all java platform registred in
the windows registry are listed in the Java
Platform Manager.

Sorry for the Defect. It's a proposal for a new feature. I changed it.
And I put as P4, because it's a NICE TO HAVE.
Comment 2 Jesse Glick 2004-07-05 18:55:58 UTC 
Would require JNI, I think, and would probably only work on Windows.
Could be considered but no plans to ever do this.
Comment 3 vbrabant 2004-07-05 21:24:41 UTC 
I though about the installer.
The installer know which JDK are available, because he is searching
itself for available JDK.
Btw, if more than one JDK is found, he proposes to user to select one
of the list. 
If installer can do that, maybe it can create/update the appropriate
file therefore.

Just a 2 cents idea.
