reading System properties [message #205628]

Hello,

I need to read system properties, e.g.
com.sun.xml.namespace.QName.useCompatibleSerialVersionUID=1. 0, from a file.

It works fine independently, but I have troubles with incorporating this
functionality into RCP application.

I call the function I wrote for reading from Application::start(). As a
result I get an exception and the application terminates.

I need to set this property for the whole app.

I will apprciate your advice.

best,
mr.woolf.

Hello mr.woolf,

I think you need to store key value pair at one point(start) and you need
to access same value for that key throught application. For this you can
use following code,

ResourcesPlugin.getPlugin().getPluginPreferences().setValue( key,value);

And get the same with key.

Nagesh,

first of all, thank you for the rapid reply. Your suggestion sounds
interesting.

Althoug, I need to clarify certain things.

1. I need to store those values in a file that we can ship it with a
product and change w/o re-building a whole project.\

2. My main concern here is that I need to find a certain entry point into
Eclipse RCP application where I can read those properties, set them by
sending request to System.setProperties() and this should not terminate an
application as it happens in teh example I mentioned earlier in the
original post.

Thank you in advance!
