Multivalue VM arguments in config.ini [message #535056]

Hi,

I am building an RCP based product for Windows, Linux and MacOS X. In the product defnition I added (among others) the VM argument

-Dorg.eclipse.emf.common.util.URI.archiveSchemes=archive zip jar

When building the product, this argument is added to the generated config.ini as

-Dorg.eclipse.emf.common.util.URI.archiveSchemes=archive
zip
jar

This works fine for Windows and MacOS X, but in Linux I get the following exception:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: zip
Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: zip
at java.net.URLClassLoader$1.run(URLClassLoader.java:202)
at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method)
at java.net.URLClassLoader.findClass(URLClassLoader.java:190)
at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:307)
at sun.misc.Launcher$AppClassLoader.loadClass(Launcher.java:301 )
at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:248)
Could not find the main class: zip. Program will exit.

The launcher plugins used are:
-startup
plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_1.0.200.v20090520.jar
--launcher.library
plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher.gtk.linux.x86_64_1.0.20 0.v20090519

How could I solve this problem? I did not manage to create a working .ini-File with this multi-valued argument.

The config.ini is expected a single argument per line so all the values should be contained on one line like this:

-Dorg.eclipse.emf.common.util.URI.archiveSchemes=archive zip jar

It sounds like the product builder is messing up. Can you try putting quotes around the values in your product definition?

-Dorg.eclipse.emf.common.util.URI.archiveSchemes="archive zip jar"

If we put quotes around the vmarg PDE ends up generating this:

-Dorg.eclipse.emf.common.util.URI.archiveSchemes="archive
zip
jar
bcz"

The application will start (tested on mac + win), but the archiveScheme is not set correctly
