Linux File Permissions [message #337016]

Tue, 21 July 2009 07:44

Eclipse User

A user of our plugin reported the following bug:

The plugin couldn't function because it couldn't read/write its config
files under workspace/.metadata/pluginName. The config files were only
accessible by root and not by his user. When he changed the permissions
to include his user, it worked.

Is this a case of a user installing eclipse incorrectly, or am I--the
plugin developer, supposed to do something other that write the config
files normally to adjust their permissions.

I get the config files by
Activator.getDefault().getStateLocation().append("config file
name").toFile()
