Radar #4489098

Application created by Java Web Start shows a generic "java" icon

Description:

When creating a "desktop application" for a Java Web Start app, it gets the generic icon instead of the correct application icon.

Resolution:

Java Web Start now creates a hidden application first and then un-hides it after creation. This problem has been fixed.

Radar #5014100

JNLP files occasionally opened by wrong application

Description:

Under certain circumstances the file association between JNLP files and Java Cache Viewer.app was being reset to Java Web Start.app. This is an older version of Java Web Start that can't run Web Start applications in Java 1.5.0. As a result, the wrong version of Java runs the application.

Resolution:

/Applications/Utilities/Java/J2SE 5.0/Java Cache Viewer.app will be removed during this update of Java. During installation, Java Web Start.app will be updated to 1.5.0_13, and will handle all JNLP files for all versions of Java.

Resolution:

This problem has been fixed.
