[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (JBDS-4238) CDK installer: should install into Application for MacOS

[Andre Dietisheim (JIRA)]

     [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBDS-4238?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Andre Dietisheim updated JBDS-4238:
-----------------------------------
    Description: 
the cdk installer for MacOS installs DevStudio and the CDK into <Home>/DevelopmentSuite. 
There are a few non-optimals here:
* Home is afaik not visible by default in Finder. 
* Furthermore applications are by default installed into Applications in MacOS. 

Possible improvements:
In order to behave like a first class MacOS-citizen we should install DevSuite and CDK independently into Applications (or maybe CDK into Document as it isnt the application in the strict sense, it's only a Virtualbox image, a Vagrantfile etc.)
