Description Greg Watson CLA 2012-02-06 16:50:04 EST 
When browsing for a host list file using the new JAXB RM for PE, the browse dialog starts in the root directory rather than the user's home directory, which is painful to say the least. It seems like the initial path is not being set correctly.

The problem is the order in which the RemoteServicesDelegate is created and the connection is opened in JAXBResourceManagerControl#doConnect(). When the RemoteServicesDelegate is created, the working directory is obtained from the remote connection, however if the remote connection is not open (e.g. if Eclipse has just been launched) then this will default to root.

Fixed in ptp_5_0 and master.
