Hi all,

how to print the System.out output of my exported RCP application
to the same windows console (cmd.exe) that I use to run the application ??

I don't want to use the -debug option that opens a separate osgi-console
window. Under Linux this is no problem. I remember that in former eclipse
version this was possible.

I created a RCP Plugin project which does not make any contributions to
the UI. Afterwards I configured a product configuration which is used for
the export.

Hello,

This is a known issue on windows, you can avoid this by using eclipsec.exe as your executable instead of the standard eclipse.exe.

So after you finish your product build, remove your myproduct.exe and replace it with eclipsec.exe (after renaming it of course).

You can find eclipsec.exe in your eclipse installation beside eclipse.exe

Hope this helps.

Best Regards,
Mohamed.
