Description Rashid Urusov 2007-11-20 15:13:20 UTC 
While choosing JDK on panel :
"Choose the installation folder and JDK™ for the NetBeans IDE"
after click on browse button and after click OK button in apeared window
for choosing JDK  in installer panel appears following line:
C:\Program Files\Java
and warning in bottom of panel : "The specified JDK folder C:\Program Files\Java does not contain JDK.

When JFileChooser is opened, this folder (C:\Program Files\Java) is selected as the current folder and it is also typed 
in "File Name:" field (this is the default file chooser behavior)

When you close the browse dialog with clicking OK this location (C:\Program Files\Java) is set as the JDK location - 
and the message is correct since there is no JDK there.

So I don`t see any issue here.
Comment 2 Rashid Urusov 2007-11-21 10:33:16 UTC 
It would be better if behaviour of "Browse" will be similar to this one on the previous  panel " Choose the installation
folder for JDK " e.g. if was not changes in path for JDK in JFileChooser - the value of JDK path should remain by default.

Since "it would be better.." then it is the enhancement.:)

CC-ing Jano.
Comment 4 jrojcek 2007-11-27 11:04:13 UTC 
Is the request the following statement?... The initial value for JDK folder in NetBeans installation panel should be the same as the specified _installation_ 
folder for JDK in the JDK installation panel. I would agree with that.

If it's something else, can you please clarify?
