Wolfgang Wiese updated NETBEANS-3971:
-
Description:
Currently the windows installer only searches for Oracles JDK. If not found,
the installer will prompt an exit notice to download it or set the _javahome_
argument.
For people with an existing netbeans version running on OpenJDK, it would be
helpful, if the installer would instead fallback to search for an existing
installation. If a prior netbeans version was found, the installer might look
into _\etc\netbeans.conf_ and read out the variable _netbeans_jdkhome_ .
This variable will then be used as _javahome_ parameter.

For people with an existing netbeans version running on OpenJDK, it would be
