Description Jared Burns CLA 2002-10-29 12:18:26 EST 
Currently, the dialog to add a JAR to the Ant classpath initializes the location to the install directory. The Eclipse install directory is almost never interesting to the user - the workspace directory contains all their files. By default, the dialog should initialize to the root of the workspace.

On a related note, I've noticed that when selfhosting, the dialog manages to initialize to my host installs directory, not my target install directory. This seems like a bug in the current support, but it won't matter if the above is implemented.

We should also remember the last location the dialog was opened on for future 
openings.

Fixed in AntClasspathPage.
Please verify.
