>                 Key: JBIDE-13481
>                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-13481
>             Project: Tools (JBoss Tools)
>          Issue Type: Enhancement
>          Components: runtime-detection
>    Affects Versions: 4.0.0.Final
>            Reporter: Michelle Murray
>            Assignee: Rob Stryker
>             Fix For: 4.4.2.Final
>
>
> 1. Click Window > Preferences > JBoss Tools > JBoss Tools Runtime Detection
> 2. Click Add and select a random directory without a runtime
> 3. Next window displays 'No runtime found' (as expected!)
> 4. Click Cancel
> 5. Despite no runtime being found this path has been added to the list of paths to scan. 
> I can understand that some users might want to add paths despite runtimes not being found - hence current behavior. But some users might just be searching for a runtime location using trial and error and it can become frustrating to have to then select the path and click Remove.
> Could this be improved by adding a step between 4 and 5? So after clicking Cancel a message is displayed to say 'No runtime was found. Are you sure you want to add this path?' with yes/no options, where yes adds the path and no doesn't add it.
