Aleks M commented on DIRSTUDIO-780:
-----------------------------------
Hello
Yes, I could pin the application just fine.
I took a look at those keys in my registry and they actually point to the
64-bit JRE believe it or not:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\JavaSoft\Java Runtime Environment
CurrentVersion: 1.6
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\JavaSoft\Java Runtime Environment\1.6
JavaHome: C:\Program Files\Java\jre6
I had to dig deeper to find out what was going on so I turned on ProcessMonitor
and it turns out that the installer is reading another part of the registry,
below Wow6432Node:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\JavaSoft\Java Runtime Environment
There my JavaHome points to C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre7
My guess is that's because the installer is a 32-bit process but I have no
proof of this.
> Windows 7 taskbar display of pinned Studio icon
> -----------------------------------------------
>
> Key: DIRSTUDIO-780
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRSTUDIO-780
> Project: Directory Studio
> Issue Type: Question
> Affects Versions: 2.0.0-M2
> Environment: Windows 7 64 bit SP1
> Reporter: Aleks M
> Priority: Trivial
>
> Hello
> I've noticed one more thing.
> I'm using the Windows 7 style taskbar where you can "pin" applications to the
> taskbar.
> In this case I've pinned the Apache Directory Studio icon from the startmenu
> which points to: "C:\Program Files\Apache Directory Studio\Apache Directory
> Studio.exe"
> When clicking on the icon in the taskbar it starts Studio as it should but
> then the icon should change into the icon of the running app.
> This doesn't happen with Studio 2M2. The icon is changed while Studio is
> loading and it even has a nice progress bar shown in the taskbar, then when
> it has loaded the icon is changed back as if the app isn't running and
> another icon for the running Studio is displayed.
> I'm not marking this as a bug since it could be by design to allow loading
> several Studio instances at once? In this case PuTTY has a nicer way of doing
> it, since you can right click on the running instance in the taskbar and
> start a new instance.
