Description Jiri Skrivanek 2001-05-11 13:33:51 UTC 
During installation proccess installer selects only one fastjavac executable
(depending on platform). Others are removed. Because external proccess
definition for Fastjavac compilation in IDE was changed from
{ide.home}{/}bin{/}fastjavac{/}fastjavac
to
{ide.home}{/}bin{/}fastjavac{/}{fastjavac.wired}
executable is not found and exception is arisen:

java.io.IOException:

Comment 1 Jiri Slefr 2001-05-11 13:58:09 UTC 
During the installation are realy deleted all fastjavacs that are not suitable 
for the platform where the IDE is installed to and the one suitable is renamed 
to "fastjavac". I can modify the installer to skip the delete and rename phase 
in order to keep all fastjavacs with their extensions.
Comment 2 Svata Dedic 2001-05-14 15:04:33 UTC 
Should be fixed in Installers - they should unpack all mutations of fastjavac 
to support shared (network) installation & easy autoupdates.
Comment 3 Jiri Slefr 2001-05-15 07:41:47 UTC 
I have modified the logic of postinstall action to leave all fastjavacs in the 
destination directory as they are installed.
Comment 4 Quality Engineering 2003-07-01 13:16:54 UTC 
Resolved for 3.4.x or earlier, no new info since then -> closing.
