Re: [p2-dev] Question on -configuration argument for shared install

[Domenico Alessi <domenico.alessi@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi All,

 

Actually my question in the end is, instead of specifying -configuration, is there an argument that can create the .eclipse folder somewhere else, and this holds the p2 and configuration directory?

 

Thanks,

Dom

Subject: Question on -configuration argument for shared install

Hi All,

 

Today when I start eclipse for example like this in a shared install:

 

eclipse -configuration /a/b/c

 

The "c" folder will hold the configuration and the "b" folder will have the p2 folder created.  Is there a way to specify where the p2 folder is created?  The reason I ask is that I did the following:

 

 

eclipse -configuration /a/b/c  , then installed plugin A

 

I then did

 

eclipse -configuration /a/b/d.  I see that plugin A is not there according to the features tab in installation details of "d", but because both "c" and "d" sharing the "b" p2 directory,  the "installed software" tab thinks that plugin A is installed when it is not.

 

BR,

Dom
