Rob Stryker commented on JBIDE-19852:
-------------------------------------

>  if the user changes the installation path in the installer, it would be nice if the tooling noticed this and still added the right path. 

I've also looked into this...   the problem is that the installation log (the only logical place I could get the installed location) is... ... .. IN the folder it was installed into. Therefore I'd need to know the install folder to find the installation log to find the install folder ;)   Clearly doesn't work.

>          Issue Type: Enhancement
>          Components: runtime-detection, server
>    Affects Versions: 4.3.0.Alpha2

> I'm not sure if this is possible, but it would be nice if the installer would fill the installation path from Download Runtime wizard.
> The same for runtime detection after the download and installation is finished.
> Example scenario:
> 1. Select JBoss DV 6.1 for download&installation
> 2. On "Download Runtime" page of wizard fill some install folder (for example /home/<user>/downloadedDV)
> 3. Click Finish - DV is downloaded and it's installer executed
> ASSERT: /home/<user>/downloadedDV is default installation path in installer
> 4. In the installer select different installation folder (for example /home/<user>/DV)
> 5. Finish installer
> ASSERT: /home/<user>/DV is added to runtime-detection paths instead of /home/<user>/downloadedDV
