Hi
cross-project,
While
testing the brand-new Oxygen M7 packages, I came across an
issue that I wanted to share.
Plus, I have
no solution yet so I’m looking for help!
At a
customer site, I want to use Oxygen Packages, but I’m
sitting behind an authenticating proxy there.
So I have no
Internet access. And if I had, I’d still want to make sure
no data gets sent to the
Internet
from that customer.
I easily
found out how to disable AERI, to avoid error reporting
reaching out:
https://wiki.eclipse.org/EPP/Logging#Disabling_AERI_in_builds_and_runtime_Eclipse
But how
can I disable the new USS used by Oomph and MPC?
I found a
related forum thread [1], but it was no help. What I
need is a System Property to turn off all internet access. I
still want to use Oomph with locally stored setup tasks, but
the attempt using USS or downloading setup.zip must be
turned off.
Right now,
I’m getting several exceptions logged due to Oomph/USS, and
I want to get rid of them.
But what
concerns me more, I think it is a valid use-case disabling
all sort of “calling home” by Eclipse.
So I think
that documentation on how to turn this off must be available
very easily!
Any help /
comments?
