Forced workspace location

[bflorat]

Specific packaging needs like [3] requires to force a workspace[1] location without using the bootstrap[2] file because the bootstrap file is not then available.

[1] The workspace location is the directory that contains the .jajuk (or .jajuk_test_<version> if using -test option) directory. It is home directory by default. [2] The bootstrap file is ~/.jajuk_bootstrap and contains the locations toward final or test workspaces. [3]  http://portableapps.com

PS : this ticket has been treated during code freeze because :

• it allows quickly a new distribution channel without waiting the next version in 6 months or more.
• the bootstrap code was buggy and required refactoring anyway, several potential flaws have been fixed

A new CLI option is now available : -workspace=<workspace location>

Use example : java -client -Xms20M -Xmx512M -XX:MinHeapFreeRatio=5 -XX:MaxHeapFreeRatio=10 -jar jajuk.jar -notest -workspace=d:\temp

Notes :

• If the <workspace>/.jajuk directory doesn't exist, the first time wizard is displayed (it allows first time user to select their music like in regular jajuk installations)
• When using the -workspace option, the bootstrap file (if it exists) is ignored. Jajuk doesn't need it anymore.
• If the <workspace> location doesn't exist or is not writable, jajuk directly exists with a fatal error
• When using the -workspace option, user can't anymore select a custom worskpace location through the first time wizard or the Preference view / advanced tab : these options are disabled.

Checked in into 04/05/2010 trunk release (see  http://integration.jajuk.info/hudson/job/Jajuk%20Daily%20Build%20-%20Trunk/ )

Will be officially available in upcoming 1.9RC4 in few days.
