Java platform selection for Tomcat (screenshot)

Currently it is possible to specify the Java platform used for running GlassFish via server properties dialog (Java tab). There is a field called Java Executable which allows to specify path to java[.exe].

It would be more user friendly if the dialog allowed me to directly choose a Java version from the IDE's platform manager, like you can do for Tomcat, see the attached screenshot.

Adding to RFE requests for next version.
Comment 2 TomasKraus 2013-10-10 09:56:49 UTC 
This was already done in 7.3.1.
