Am I right?
        No, I think the problem
is somewhere else. It seems that your arguments are not being processed
correctly or not even passed to eclipse. Have you check that the arguments
are received by eclipse? Did you check the log?
        What
I was trying to explain in my previous note is that in a running eclipse,
the entity responsible to decide whether to exit or not is osgi itself
not the webstartmain (see EclipseStart.run(,) and its use of the property
osgi.noShutdown.
) So even if you were to modify webstartMain, you would be left with a
process that does nothing since osgi would have shutdown anyway.

Does that make sense?

Yes, I know bug #162097.
I walked around it by changing the jar file name.For example, I changed
org.eclipse.osgi_3.2.1.R32x_v20060919.jar to org.eclipse.osgi_3.2.1.R32x.v20060919.jar
.

So I need to write a web start launcher by extending the WebStartMain class
but with a different main() method for this issue. Am I right?

The -noExit argument is honored by osgi itself and not by the launchers.
I think you may have another problem that causes the startup sequence to
fail. 
If you are trying to start equinox from eclipse 3.2.1, it might be the
problem bug #162097

All,

I'm trying Java Web Start deployment with Equinox (Not RCP). In the JNLP
file, I set the property eclipse.ignoreApp=true. Also I appended the "-noExit"
argument to the main class. Just like below.

 <application-desc main-class="org.eclipse.core.launcher.WebStartMain">
   <argument>-nosplash</argument>
   <argument>-noExit</argument>
 </application-desc>

 <resources>
   <!-- Reference to the startup.jar. This does not change -->
   <jar href="">
   <property 
       name="eclipse.ignoreApp" 
       value="true"/>
 ......


The problem is the argument "-noExit" doesn't work. After check
the code, I notice WebStartMain.main () mehtod calls System.exit(), which
makes the web start application terminated. I wonder if osgi.noShutdown
property should be checked before calling System.exit().
