Forcing locale of Eclipse RCP application is ignored [message #729437]

I have created an eclipse RCP application with some language fragments in German. When I run the application (myApplication.exe) it starts with the default language fragments (English).

Now I would like to test that it will load German fragments. In the myApplication.ini file I have added:

-nl de

but it still runs the English fragments.

If I specify -nl de during development in the eclipse product configuration under Program Arguments (on the Launching tab) the German fragments are loaded just fine.

Any ideas why the option -nl de is ignored in the exported product?

EDIT:
Adding the option to the target in a shortcut works:

"C:\application\myApplication.exe" -nl de

but still no success when specifying it in the myApplication.ini file.

Hi

Create a properties file for the all the widget in german and that will take care of loading the data.

Thanks and regards

I have created properties files for all my text and it works fine inside eclipse. But for some reason specifying -nl de in the .ini file of the exported product does not work.
