@bh: We would need additional messages for the user. Let me recapitulate the
problem. 
-OOo is configured to use particular JRE
-User removes the JRE which is used by OOo
-When OOo uses a Java dependent function then the message box shows up telling
that the Java is defective.

Instead of showing this message, OOo could silently try to locate a working
JAVA. If it does not find one then the user should be told something like:
"OOo needs Java to perform an operation, but could not find one. The previously
used JRE at c:\program files\Java\jre1.6.0_02 has been removed or is damaged."

Notice that this message may not only appear immediately as a result of a user's
action. OOo may be running some automatic jobs, which may use Java depend
services at any time.


If the user selected a JRE manually in the options, then this entry would not
exist anymore. This could go unnoticed by the user, if a new JRE is found. The
user may be wondering later, where his/her selected Java has gone? 
However, displaying the user in the options that a different JRE had to be
selected, seems like overkill to me.

Implementation hints:

-new function in java plugin:
checkInstallation(JavaInfo* pInfo)

This function should simply check if the installation still exists without
starting a Java. It would be used by javaldx, which should not delay starting
OOo too much.

jfw_plugin_startJavaVirtualMachine should also return JFW_PLUGIN_E_NO_JRE, for
example when loading of the VM failed.
