Description

When selecting installation directory to something like "~/myDirectory", the installation is not done in the home directory (didn't figure if it is actually created nor where). All the remaining installation goes smoothly and we get a success message afterwards.

We would need more details for this issue to understand what really happens.

If you can, adding some related screenshots would probably help.

Thanks

See provided screenshots. From ~, I launch java -jar /data/download/jajuk-java-installer-1.5.1_RC5.jar
I enter "/jajuk-test", it is replaced by "/home/bflorat//jajuk-test" instead of "/home/bflorat/jajuk-test"

It looks like this is a JDK issue as it doesn't expand '~' in file paths, isn't it?

Lucky you, I have transformed this JDK-issue into an IzPack improvement

The fix is in the latest SVN trunk. Bertrand, could you please check it for yourself and confirm so that I close the issue?

Thx for fixing Julien. Sorry, testing IzPack trunk version is not possible for us as we use at jajuk a complex continous integration system and not from desktops: it's too mush work and risk to upgrade. Please considere it as fixed, we'll check it when using next IzPack stable release and reopen if required.
