Bug 203042

Summary:	Absolute paths are stored in project.properties
Product:	javafx	Reporter:	Petr Jiricka <pjiricka>
Component:	Platform	Assignee:	Anton Chechel <manowar>
Status:	RESOLVED DUPLICATE
Severity:	normal

Description Petr Jiricka 2011-10-04 12:17:21 UTC

1. Create a new JavaFX project
2. Open project.properties from the Files tab
You will see that this file contains hardcoded paths in the following properties:

javafx.runtime=/Users/petrjiricka/software/javafx-sdk2.0.2-beta/rt
javafx.sdk=/Users/petrjiricka/software/javafx-sdk2.0.2-beta

These should be stored in private/private.properties, to make the project versionable.

It would also be useful if build script detected whether these properties are defined, and if not, it would gracefully fail with a clear message asking the user to set the properties. (This approach is also used for handling missing server in Java EE project types.)
