Description



There is common functionality between Java Web Start and Java Plug-in.
Examples include auto-downloading, installation, caching, app control,
etc.  For reliability, consistency as well as ease-of-use improvements it is
desirable to have Java Web Start and Java Plug-in share as much code as
possible. Additionally where appropriate  they should also present
same or similar UI e.g. control panel.

Much of the functionality and UI have now been unified as part of other rfe's.
The part that I think remains, is the remaining javaws dialogs that are not going thru com.sun.deploy.util, but instead are using com.sun.javaws.ui.general.GeneralUtilities.  I think this class should be removed, and it functionality moved to com.sun.deploy.util.

According to Andy, this rfe is already fixed in Milestone 3.
