Description mariadavydova 2007-02-02 08:11:58 UTC 
Try to create silent state file:
java
-Dnbi.product.remote.registries=http://nephrite.russia.sun.com/nbi/milestone10/get-registry?registry=NetBeans+6.0+M6
-jar nbi-engine.jar --record C:\nbi-silent\state.txt
Pressing the Finish button brings FinalizationException.
See log in attachment.

Comment 4 dlipin 2007-03-30 15:42:24 UTC 
The issue is that the directory "C:\nbi-silent", that doesn`t exist, is not 
created when saving XML file.

I guess we should modify method XMLUtils#saveXMLDocument with 
"file.getParent().mkdirs()" invocation or reusing some of existing FileUtils# 
for the same purposes.
Comment 5 Kirill Sorokin 2007-03-30 15:46:27 UTC 
Disagree. It should not generally be the burden of a utils class to verify and,
more importantly, correct the environment. #saveXmlDocument should fail, but the
method which calls it should make sure that the directory exists.
Comment 6 dlipin 2007-03-30 15:51:15 UTC 
Agree.:)
Then we should fix the issue by adding "mkdirs" functionality in 
Registry#saveStateFile.
Comment 7 Kirill Sorokin 2007-03-30 15:53:37 UTC 
Yep. :)
Comment 8 dlipin 2007-04-16 09:57:38 UTC
