platform specific data in project settings [message #329342] Thu, 19 June 2008 21:36

I like to share my project data (.project, .settings) with my other
developers so that we all have the same setup. I've now run into a
problem with this on Mac.

1) On Windows or Linux create a JRE named "foo" that is just a copy of
the default JRE.
2) Create a project that uses that named JRE
Note that in the .classpath you see:
<classpathentry kind="con"
path=" org.eclipse.jdt.launching.JRE_CONTAINER/org.eclipse.jdt.inte rnal.debug.ui.launcher.StandardVMType/foo "/>
3) Now try to use the project under Eclipse on the Mac and note that
even when the correctly named JRE is created Eclipse won't connect them.

Now change the classpath on the Mac platform to use the JRE named "foo"
and note that the .classpath file contains
<classpathentry kind="con"
path=" org.eclipse.jdt.launching.JRE_CONTAINER/org.eclipse.jdt.inte rnal.launching.macosx.MacOSXType/foo "/>

Note that this data is specific to the Mac. Apparently it's not possible
to create or use a JRE of type "Standard" on the Mac.

Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this? Or is this a bug in
Eclipse? Or perhaps Eclipse was not meant to be used this way?
