Window icons not showing [message #929527] Mon, 01 October 2012 10:41 Go to next message

Hi,

I started getting familiar with Eclipse 4 application development. I'm trying to do a full migration of a customer project from Eclipse 3.7 to Eclipse 4. So branding is a big topic. But I don't get the Window icons to be shown.

I create a new Eclipse 4 Application with the "Eclipse 4 Application Project" Wizard. I'm setting the Icon URI to "platform:/plugin/my.plugin/icons/sample.gif". Adding -clearPersistedState to the Program Arguments of the product and the icons folder to the build.properties. Starting the Eclipse 4 Application is showing a window with a default application icon which is not the sample.gif.
Setting the window icon in the Branding section of the product configuration doesn't change anything.

I'm running on a Windows 7 64bit machine, using Java 6 Update 35

I tried with Eclipse 4.2 and 4.2.1.

As this is something general, IMHO this can't be a general bug, as somebody else would have found it before. Maybe it is some problem in my system. Does somebody have an idea where I could look at to solve this issue. I already re-installed Eclipse from scratch and used perfectly new workspaces.

Hopefully somebody can help,
Dirk

Hi,

I find it really odd no one has reported this before but you have stumbled on https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=280825#c4 . I (or Eric) will fix this asap.

Hi,

thanks for investigating on this and pointing me to that bug. In fact it would have been my follow up question on how to configure several icons for a window in the application model to be able to develop cross platform applications (just like it is possible within the product configuration).

Greez,
Dirk

Here's the discussion or IRC http://echelog.com/logs/browse/eclipse-e4/1349042400 which pretty much talks about that topic. Starts on 17:09
