hi there

when launching my custom rcp application, i want to provide a custom
command line argument to it, such as:

myrcp.exe -mycustomkey mycustomvalue

now: how can i read out this startup option in my application?
what i found so far is:

String[] args = EclipseEnvironmentInfo.getDefault().getNonFrameworkArgs();

however, the usage of this class is discouraged (its an internal one...).

of course i can get all params from System.getProperties() and then try
to parse out my parameter, but thats annoying. i guess there must be a
simpler way to get my param...

any hints appreciated, thanx and live long.

ok, i found something:

String[] Platform.getCommandLineArgs();

does the trick...
