    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-8344?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12580674#comment-12580674 ] 

Magnus Mogren commented on JBIDE-8344:
--------------------------------------

No i have not, and relying on that does not sound like a good solution for the following reasons:

1) EAP_HOME is not required for the AS to run. I do fine without it.
2) It makes detecting several different EAP's impossible since EAP_HOME can only point to one EAP. In the screenshot EditRuntimeDialog2.png attached to https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-7527 several different EAP's is detected.

Maybe looking in the manifest.mf file of the jboss-system.jar file located in the lib directory of the AS is a better solution to find out what the AS version is?
For 4.3.0.GA_CP03 EAP it reads:
   Implementation-Title: JBoss [EAP]
   Specification-Version: 4.3.0.GA_CP03
For 4.2.3 AS:
   Implementation-Title: JBoss [Trinity]
   Specification-Version: 4.2.3.GA
And for 6.0.0 AS:
   Implementation-Title: JBoss Application Server System
   Specification-Version: 6.0.0.Final
   
I do not have another EAP than 4.3 available, but if the Implementation-Title in the manifest.mf of those also contains [EAP] then looking for that would work?

> The automatic runtime detection cannot handle EAP 4.3.0.GA_CP03.
> In the "Searching for runtimes..." dialog it detects it as Version=4.3 and type=AS.
> The created runtime gets type "JBoss AS 4.2" and vendor "JBoss Community".
> Because of this i get the warning "This server type expects a version of 4.2 but the server directory is of version 4.3.0.GA_CP03." in the "Edit Server Runtime Environment" dialog
> The correct type and vendor should be "JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 4.3" and "JBoss Enterprise Middleware"
