Description _ ttran 2000-09-15 15:34:17 UTC 
f a place for a new jar file is not explicitely chosen, Jar Packager uses the
IDE startup directory as the default location. This could result in creation od
the jar file in the bin directory, if the user ran the IDE directly from this
directory.

fixed in [boston 1120]
Comment 2 Jan Stola 2000-10-19 09:51:59 UTC 
Still not fixed in build 1125 and 49.

1. Start IDE.
2. Open JAR packager from Tools|JAR packager.
3. JAR archive location shown will be <FORTE_HOME>/Development
4. Delete this location and enter only "myjar.jar" into the text field.
5. Create JAR.
6. "myjar.jar" will be placed into the <FORTE_HOME>/bin directory.

I don't understand why there is <FORTE_HOME>/Development as an offered
location after IDE start. I think the default location should be user's
home directory System.getProperty("user.home") instead of currently used
working directory System.getProperty("user.dir").
