Denis Golovin commented on JBDS-3111:
-------------------------------------

I'll fix the validation and only one "JBoss Developer Studio does not work with Java Applet Plug-in." will be present.

> This is a follow up of JBDS-3014.
> When you double click the installer in Finder on OS X, the default java located in /Library/Internet Plug-Ins/JavaAppletPlugin.plugin/Contents/Home will now be rejected with an error because apparently that is just the JRE, not JDK.

> But the error is a bit vague.
> Max suggested this:

> Should say something like JDK does not work, need to be a full JDK Java 7 or higher or similar if user point to a broken jdk.
> and if the folder does not contain anything it should not make it sound that a JDK is actually there 
> {quote}
> Even better, we could find the location of real JDK and offer that first.
