I am working on a product based on Eclipse 3.4 and am seeing some curious  
behavior: after starting the product, creating a workspace, and exiting  
the workbench, subsequent startups do not prompt for the workspace name  
unless I specify the -clean startup option. 
 
Window->Preferences->General->Startup and Shutdown has "Prompt for workspace  
on startup" checked. 
 
Looking in Help->About...->Configuration Details in the *** User  
Preferences section, I see that SHOW_WORKSPACE_SELECTION_DIALOG=true is in  
effect:  
 /configuration/org.eclipse.ui.ide/SHOW_WORKSPACE_SELECTION_D IALOG=true 
 
Digging through the org.eclipse.ui.ide.prefs file, I see  
SHOW_WORKSPACE_SELECTION_DIALOG=true 
 
Does anyone know of any reason why I would only get the workspace  
selection dialog if I start eclipse with the -clean option? 
 
BTW, I do get prompted again if I cancel out of the workspace selection  
dialog, but not if I proceed to bring up the workspace. 
 
Also, I never see a splash screen with or w/o the -clean option.
