+1 On changing it to IDEA_JAVA_HOME especially when it requires certain versions of Java while many of us still have to develop in 1.3.
I also think we should still have the default feature where if you don't have IDEA_JAVA_HOME set it will default to the "standard" install dir of the required JDK. This will keep us from getting all kinds of reports from new users who have JAVA_HOME set to a JRE or an incompatible version of Java. -kevin > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Michael Descher > Sent: Wednesday, July 03, 2002 2:06 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: [Eap-bugs] Re: JAVA_HOME in 633 > > > I think this has been done due to some people having JAVA_HOME mapped > to another JDK requesting it.
