Description
install/make/common/sfx2sh hardcodes the release number to '6' for JDK 7 release.
This needs to be fixed.  The release version is not passed to sfx2sh unfortunately.
The message is shown after the installation completes and it seems reasonable just to
say "Java(TM) SE Development Kit has been successfully installed." with no mention
of which JDK version.
Comments
EVALUATION This is the same issue as 6851433 which is fixed in jdk7 b125. Closed as duplicate.
