Description bht 2014-09-16 23:32:43 UTC 
I just upgraded from 8.0 to 8.01. I noticed that an existing project that was fine before, has an error hint:

'There is no Java Platform with value "JDK_1.6" defined in the current IDE. The default platform is used instead. To fix, introduce a Java Platform with the given name or change the projects used Java Platform.'

Then I created a new maven project to see how to get the JDK 1.6 into it.

In the Project Properties|Build|Compile|Java Platform list box there is only a single entry JDK 1.7 (Default) but when I click on the button "Manage Platforms" then this shows both JDK  1.6 and JDK 1.7.

How can this be resolved?

added some logging, perhaps it will provide some insight 

once it is announced in this issue, that it was integrated into the daily
builds, please get a build, reproduce the issue and attach your messages.log

thanks

Tomas, I re-tried this using the current 8.01 (platform independent zip) version, and it worked. It looks like this is a transient issue after first installation. I noticed a somewhat vertically compressed "Java Platform" list box in the project properties dialog, but I doubt that this was the issue as it is still as compressed as it was when the platform was missing. Will re-open if I can catch this again. Many thanks.
