Description Sandi Schoellhammer

Running a webstart application with 1.6 installed will use the new caching
format, but if the JNLP states version="1.5" (this means it has to be 1.5.x_xx)
then eclipse will assume the caching is the old (<= 1.5) format and fail.

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
