Subject:   IntelliJ IDEA && Java Version ('1.4.1-p3_1' vs '1.4.1_01')
Message-ID:  <3E6E4DBC.7060806@acm.org>

IntelliJ IDEA does a pre-start check to make sure that the JVM 
identifies itself as version '1.4.1_01'.  It breaks because the native 
JDK port currently identifies itself as '1.4.1-p3_1' (or something like 
that).

There's an easy fix -- editing the version string in 
control/build/bsd-i586/gensrc/sun/misc/Version.java -- and after the 
edit IDEA at least starts and appears to work correctly so far as I've 
tested it.

But this all leads to a question:  should the version string be 
platform/beta specific?  Are the IntelliJ folks wrong in assuming that 
this is a reasonable test?  Would it be enough for the native JDK to 
muck with the static String java_runtime_version, and leave the 
java_version String alone?

- a.
