Description Petr Blaha 2004-08-19 08:15:19 UTC 
Build 20040818
Link 'Third Party License Readme' doesn't open
external browser with the licence.
Comment 1 _ ttran 2004-08-19 08:26:48 UTC 
this is not implemented and won't be.  The license HTML text shouldn't
contain clickable links
Comment 2 Petr Blaha 2004-08-19 08:31:12 UTC 
OK, could I file a new issue for licence?
Comment 3 dmladek 2004-08-19 08:31:47 UTC 
IMHO it is regression. It used to work in NB36,

either remove hyperlinks from the licence 
like this link:
"Third Party License Readme" where you don't know the URL
or let's open user's browser
Comment 4 mslama 2004-08-19 08:33:27 UTC 
How to change links in text? 

<a
href="http://www.netbeans.info/downloads/licence/3rd-party-license-readme-2004-08-02.html">
Third Party License Readme</a>

Something like:
Third Party License Readme
(http://www.netbeans.info/downloads/licence/3rd-party-license-readme-2004-08-02.html)

or something else?
Comment 5 dmladek 2004-08-19 08:38:46 UTC 
The second case seems useful: you'll see the URL which you could
copy&paste into browser
Comment 6 _ ttran 2004-08-19 08:40:05 UTC 
forget about 3.6 installer
Comment 7 Petr Blaha 2004-08-19 08:40:38 UTC 
Suggestion:
change the sentence
..... forth in the Third Party License Readme which can be found at
http://www.netbeans.info/downloads/licence/3rd-party-license-readme-2004-08-02.html.
and remove all hyperlinks from BCL
Comment 8 dmladek 2004-08-19 09:02:25 UTC 
OK, but it works in earlier 4.0 installerrs too ;-)

Petr's suggestion is fine for me
Comment 9 mslama 2004-08-23 09:50:50 UTC 
Ok. Going to modify licence according to last suggestion from
"Additional Comments From blaha 2004-08-19 00:40 PDT".
Comment 10 mslama 2004-08-23 10:38:56 UTC

Marek can you also integrate (if it not yet) your fix to co-bundle
installers too, please? 
The latest available are from 19 aug :-/
Comment 12 mslama 2004-08-26 16:00:51 UTC 
There should be different licence file for jdkbundle installer. (Both
for NB and JDK.) For now I just copied licence from NB installer to
have at least something.
Comment 13 dmladek 2004-08-26 16:08:54 UTC 
OKi, then if some problem ocucres I enter a new issue, right? 

verifying on TRUNK as fixed

Thanks
