Hi,

I'm currently developing an application with RCP and I have some configuration files that I would like to include in the application classpath for the distribution but outside of the jar file. I would like to know if this is possible.

I tried to include them in the root directory and this worked in some cases (when I use them directly) but I'm still having the problem because I use some libraries that use that files in another way and I can't change them.

Any lead on this would be very appreciated

Thanks and regards,

Jorge

Hi,

we put our config files into the RCP workspace directory, and reach them like this:
final IWorkspaceRoot wsRoot = ResourcesPlugin.getWorkspace().getRoot();
final String configFilePath = wsRoot.getLocation() + File.separator + "config.file";

The RCP workspace dir location can be configured.

Hope, this helps.

Best regards,
Marton

Thanks,

I can't use that because I can't change the way the libraries access config files.

But I've just found another way to it, using a feature with the configuration and changing the behaviour of my plugin to based on features. It seems that the root directory is a part of the classpath.
