[Luis Garcia (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBDS-2797?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12814243#comment-12814243 ] 

Luis Garcia commented on JBDS-2797:
-----------------------------------

The new installer would be helpful - since it would contain the new updated launcher that doesn't ask for JDK 6 on OS X.
Regarding updating the INI file during the upgrade process - the INI file inside the jbdevstudio.app gets updated fine.
It is the INI file in the JBoss Developer Studio.app that doesn't get updated to the new launcher.

The main issue with OS X is that if you use JDK 7 to install the JAR containing JBDS 7.
When you try to launch the application it prompt for a JDK 6 install in order to be able to run.

> User noticed issues with 7.0.0 to 7.0.1 updates at https://community.jboss.org/message/841477#841477 that needs investigation.
> The post is about osx but I don't think this is limited to this OS, just that OSX has a different java behavior.
> Worrisome issues are:
> development url used in GA update:
> -Djboss.discovery.directory.url=https://devstudio.jboss.com/updates/7.0-development/devstudio-directory.xml
> startup/launcher directories are hardcoded in the .ini file:
> -startup
> ../../../plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_1.3.0.v20130327-1440.jar
> --launcher.library
> ../../../plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher.cocoa.macosx.x86_64_1.1.200.v20130807-1835
> Have these been forgotten/set wrong in the update or is this some specific update path that is failing ?
