How to define a custom configuration file (INI/XML) for a rcp application? [message #464151]

Hello everybody,

I like to define a application-wide (or product-wide?) custom
configuration file like config.ini.

I don't want to use config.ini itself because of:

a) I get some odd errors with my custom config.ini which I can't solve
with my current knowledge and

b) I want to separate the application configuration from the eclipse/RCP
configuration.

So I like to add a "custom.ini" which holds all the application specific
parameters. But these parameters should be accessible like these from the
config.ini via System.getProperty().

Is it also possible with an XML-based configuration file?

Info:
I'm using Eclipse 3.2.2 as IDE and RCP.

Thank you,
Tilo Gau
