Geertjan Wielenga commented on NETBEANS-3971:
---------------------------------------------
The installer searches for the JDK set globally on your system.
> Make Installer look into existing local NB Config for netbeans_jdkhome

> Key: NETBEANS-3971
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-3971
> Project: NetBeans
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: cnd - Execution
> Affects Versions: 12.0, 11.1, 11.3
> Environment: Windows
> Reporter: Wolfgang Wiese
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: Installer, Javahome, openjdk
>
> Currently the windows installer only searches for Oracles JDK. If not found,
> the installer will prompt an exit notice to download it or set the _javahome_
> argument.
>
> For people with an existing netbeans version running on OpenJDK, it would be
> helpful, if the installer would instead fallback to search for an existing
> installation. If a prior netbeans version was found, the installer might look
> into _\etc\netbeans.conf_ and read out the variable _netbeans_jdkhome_ .
> This variable will then be used as _javahome_ parameter.
