Description Martin Oberhuber CLA 2010-09-17 04:49:14 EDT 
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #319871 +++

I was just about to download the 3.6.1 build (M20100909-0800) and noticed that the Java 1.6u21 clickthrough is still there.

I believe that this 

 - should be removed from the 3.6.x and 3.7 builds, since bug 320005 has been
   fixed by Andrew so this cannot happen any more

 - should be removed or weakened from the 3.3 - 3.6 pages since the problem
   was only temporary with the 1.6.0_21-b06 build and resolved by Oracle with
   the 1.6.0_21-b07 build. See the FAQ text linked to by the main Eclipse
   download pages as per bug 319868:
   http://wiki.eclipse.org/FAQ_How_do_I_run_Eclipse%3F#Oracle.2FSun_VM_1.6.0_21_on_Windows

Note that a similar clickthrough may be needed again when Java 7 comes out. Andrew, do you consider the bug 320005 solution permanent or are you thinking about a better solution moving forward?

I've fixed this in the 3.6.1 candidate build, the 3.6 build and the R3_6_maintenance and HEAD streams of org.eclipse.releng.  I'll leave the 3.3-3.5.x messages for now.  They will need to be updated with a new message when Oracle changes the name in the VM for Java 7.
