Hi, I develop rcp application. Different users of application may want to open the same working area. How to redirect .metadata file so, it will be specific per user. Thanks, Stella

I found options:
osgi.instance.area.readOnly=true
but when I set it, the application still fails. The <area> is read only.
<application> -data <area>
java.lang.IllegalStateException: The platform metadata area could not be written...
What is the correct usage scenario of osgi.instance.area.readOnly?
Thanks, Stella
