Logging and tracing from your RCP application [message #755925]

Hi all,

I was trying to enable debug and tracing using .options configuration file, which was placed in the installation directory of my RCP application, but with no success. The content of the file looks like this:

org.eclipse.ui/debug=true
org.eclipse.ui/perf/showHeapStatus=true
org.eclipse.ui/trace/commands=true

I was wondering if it would possible to control debug settings programatically from the application code.

Any comments are welcome. Thanks in advance!

I solved it. The problem was the order of the options in the application configuration file (appname.ini). As a result the debug mode was disabled. All platform settings always have to be put before -vmargs option.

In my case:

-trace
-debuf
-clean

-vmargs
-Xmx512M
-Xms128M
