------------------------------------

             Summary: If a RHEL user installs Oracle Java 1.7 through `yum install` and not from a direct download from Oracle, they cannot select JavaFx as the browser engine
                 Key: JBIDE-18518
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-18518
             Project: Tools (JBoss Tools)
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: browsersim
    Affects Versions: 4.2.0.CR2
            Reporter: Len DiMaggio


If a RHEL user installs Oracle Java 1.7 through `yum install` and not from a direct download from Oracle, they cannot select JavaFx as the browser engine

The issue is that if a RHEL user installs these packages:

java-1.7.0-oracle-1.7.0
java-1.7.0-oracle-devel-1.7.0

It may appear as though the full JDK has been installed as the "devel" package installs javac - however, the JavaFx libraries are not installed. As a result, the user cannot specify JavaFx as the browser engine in the BrowserSim preferences. (See attached screenshot.)
