Created attachment 164009 [details] Patch file Added a isValid method into the JavaPlatform to check JavaPlatform validity. Currently there are several places which check JavaPlatform validity in different ways. Most used pattern is !jp.getInstallFolder().isEmpty() but on some places also important tools are checked in addition to install folders. The JavaPlatform was extended by isValid method doing the !jp.getInstallFolder().isEmpty(). The subclasses like J2SEPlatform can do more checks like check of important tools and boot classpath validity.
