Align installation default path with installer filename (and add version string too?) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBDS-3044 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBDS-3044 Project: Developer Studio (JBoss Developer Studio) Issue Type: Feature Request Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) Components: installer Affects Versions: 8.0.0.Beta2 Reporter: Martin Malina Assignee: Denis Golovin Priority: Blocker Labels: discuss Fix For: 8.0.0.Beta3 Now that Nick changed the installer filenames to jboss-devstudio in JBIDE-16871 (was jbdevstudio), shouldn't the default install path be changed similarly? Because it just went out of sync. This question is open for discussion. Nick pointed out some reasons against this suggestion: {quote} Martin Malina Re: changing the installation folder, I'll hold off on that change for the moment for a few reasons: a) Max is AFK, and will want to vet/veto this idea b) long paths for Windows users (80% of our user base) = bad news, especially considering how long some file paths can get already within Eclipse workspaces c) short paths for Windows (c:\jbdevstudio) & long paths for everyone else ~/jboss-devstudio) would be ill-advised from a documentation and cross-platform user experience So, either we stick w/ jbdevstudio, or we shorten to devstudio (losing the "jb" branding fragment). If we move to "jboss-devstudio" we increase the path by only 4 characters. Max Rydahl Andersen WDYT? {quote}
