JDK-4523276 - RFE: Common control panel infrastructure
Description
The java_plugin_AppletStore is now only use to hold optional package jar files (temporarily store). Before other plugin files (cache files) where stored in this directory. To cut down (consolidate) on the number of different plugin directories we should move the <user>/java_plugin_AppletStore/1.x.x/ext to the <user>/.jpi_cache directory. This will make it easier for the user to find files and isolate problems (less places they need to look at).
Comments
EVALUATION This is now fixed as part of the "Common control panel infrastructure" RFE #4523276. Mark as duplicate.

SUGGESTED FIX Change java_plugin_AppletStore directory, set in <ws>/ext/plugin/java/src/sun/plugin/extension/ExtensionUtils.java, to new location. The old directory (java_plugin_AppletStore) is now the plugin cache temp directory (UserProfile.getTempDirectory). ###@###.### 2002-09-10
