Description _ krystyna 2008-08-01 06:33:20 UTC 
NetBeans Installer Build 200807311401
MacPro 
JDK1.6

P2 because it should be fixed for FCS. 

Apple JDK1.6 is installed and symlink correctly set for CurrentJDK, so that /usr/bin/java points
correctly to 1.6.  It is not picked up by installer. About box shows 1.5 thouogh JDK1.6 can 
be selected as jdk in project properties for individual projects.


Have to manually edit netbeans.conf on Mac to adjust jdkhome for 1.6.
Comment 1 dlipin 2008-08-01 06:44:20 UTC 
JDK5 has always been the default for all installations of NetBeans 6.x.
I haven`t heard that we should use JDK6 instead.
Comment 2 _ krystyna 2008-08-01 06:53:17 UTC 
We should not hard code 1.5 if now 1.6 is available and used on 
some Mac systems. Apple finally shipped their JDK1.6 in early May 2008.
Comment 3 dlipin 2008-08-04 10:41:48 UTC 
Unfortunately it is risky to fix in 6.5 Beta, so it would be fixed in development builds soon (targeting 6.5 RC/FCS).
