It's a tough one. On the one hand, we should be asking the users where they want to install Java, because Java != Freenet. On the other hand, installing Java to a non-local directory (e.g. installing Java to C:\Program Files\ ...) smacks too much of allowing the user to do what they want with Java, where we should really be hiding the fact that Freenet uses Java. I don't believe the online installer gives us such a restriction, however. I haven't tried running the Java online installer in silent mode yet, but how about: 1. Freenet installer asks where the Freenet software should be installed 2. Freenet installer asks separately where shared system files should be installed 3. If Java not detected, the Freenet installer uses that second path to install Java using Sun's online installer? d _______________________________________________ Devl mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://dodo.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/devl
