The goal is to not blindly overwrite existing JBDS icons/launchers.
Today we get a warning if the user already has an existing c:/jbdevstudio folder. That is fine and the user can change the install directory to c:/jbdevstudio2 if he wishes.
But if he does he ends up with 2 JBoss Developer Studio launchers/uninstallers.
Thus I suggest that our launcher should be named "JBoss Developer Studio <major version name>", i.e. "JBoss Developer Studio 2".
Same goes for the uninstaller, it should not just be called "Uninstaller", it should be "Uninstall JBoss Developer Studio 2"
I thought about using the full version name ("JBoss Developer Studio 2.0.0.GA") but what would then happen when the user installs 2.0.1.GA ....can we update the launcher ? If we can we should only do that if the user decided to install into the same directory.
