Setting a relative path to the preferences customization file. [message #771793]

After some research I found this post: www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php/m/718112/ for changing the eclipse default preferences.

The last piece I'm missing is how to make the .ini file path relative rather than absolute. I tried:

-pluginCustomization
../default-prefs.ini

and

-pluginCustomization
./default-prefs.ini

and

-pluginCustomization
default-prefs.ini

but it does not work.

Any idea how to do that? The reason is that we deliver an eclipse installation as a part of our dev tools package and we do not restrict the user in the placement of the package. Thus I need the prefs file to be referenced relatively.

I'm facing currently the same problem.
An absolute path is working fine, but when I switch to relative, it doesn't work anymore.

I'm using a windows installation and can't test on an other system.
