Eclipse 3.1.x - plugin_configuration.ini [message #306716]

Hi

I want to deploy a custom RCP package with company intern settings
(tabsize and so on)

I googled around and found out, that with plugin_customization.ini I can
define the standard configuration of the properties.

However I have one problem.
We have a customized RCP which seems to create the
plugin_configuration.ini on each start in
\configuration\org.eclipse.osgi\bundles\...\plugin_customiza tion.ini

So if I edit the plugin_configuration.ini manually it it useless as it is
overriden on each program start.

I found out that I can define plugin_configuration.ini in the command line
:
Then my plugin_configuration.ini is used.

I do not want to use a custom command line.

Is there a way between the RCP level and the command line, where I can
specify the plugin_configuration.ini
e.g. in configuration/config.ini or similar , wich overrides the RCP
specific one ?

What about plugin.ini in the various pulgins ? (I don't like this as I
would prefer centralized customisation)

Thanks for you support

Sascha

You may put a plugin_customization.ini in your main/product/application
plugin. This is achieved by putting a new attribute in your product
definition like

<property
name="preferenceCustomization"
value="plugin_customization.ini"/>

Hmm I am still not sure.

I realized that inside the <mainproduct>.jar file of the main product, =

there is already a "plugin_customization.ini".
However, I unpacked this and extended it with my customisation, and then=
=

added it to the <mainproduct>.jar with a zip programm.

Now I have the problem the with the new packed <mainproduct>.jar the =

Eclipse does not boot,
other parts of the product complain about not beeing "Singleton" ?

Would this be the correct way for a company adminstrator to adopt compan=
y =

specific settings for Eclipse and its RCP's ?

Thanks for your support.
