Source code for "osgi.clean" option [message #631962]

Hi,

We have a RCP 3.2.2 application that we are updating via Microsoft SCCM (since the mobile platform is managed this way as well)

To save bandwidth we are replacing bundles in the plugins directory and therefore we need to clear the plugin cache, etc that running with "-clean" or "osgi.clean=true" would do.

I've tried google but haven't had much luck in finding the source code that handles "osgi.clean" as I need to duplicate this process so that SCCM can patch in headless/logged off mode.

Can anyone point me in the right location please?

Thanks,
Barrie

The source is in the framework implementation (org.eclipse.osgi) in the org.eclipse.osgi.internal.baseadaptor.BaseStorage.cleanOSGiC ache() method.

You can find the source here:

http://dev.eclipse.org/viewsvn/index.cgi/org.eclipse.equinox /framework/bundles/org.eclipse.osgi/defaultAdaptor/src/org/e clipse/osgi/internal/baseadaptor/BaseStorage.java?root=RT_Pr oject&view=log

But I will tell you that the -clean option simply removes the org.eclipse.osgi/ directory found in the configuration folder for your particular configuration of eclipse.

HTH

Tom.
