Is BrowserSim 'select JRE' option obsolete?
-------------------------------------------
Key: JBIDE-17229
URL:
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-17229
Project: Tools (JBoss Tools)
Issue Type: Enhancement
Components: browsersim
Affects Versions: 4.2.0.Beta1
Reporter: Michelle Murray
Assignee: Konstantin Marmalyukov
The preference to select a JRE with which to run BrowserSim was introduced so that 64-bit
Windows users could run the IDE as 64-bit but use BrowserSim in 32-bit (since Apple Safari
was only available as 32-bit for Windows).
Now there is JavaFX option for 32-bit and 64-bit Windows users to run BrowserSIm. So
64-bit Windows users no longer need to install 32-bit Apple Safari and run BrowserSim
32-bit while IDE runs in 64-bit.
So is there a use case any longer for users to be able to set a preference for a
different JRE from the one running the IDE?
