Hi All,
If above approach of substituting values in config.ini is not possible by
passing runtime arguments ,can I pass all arguments without reading
config.ini?
I tried this passing the following arguments at startup;
-Dorg.eclipse.equinox.simpleconfigurator.configUrl=file:{pathToInstallation}/configuration/ProfileA/org.eclipse.equinox.simpleconfigurator/
bundles.info
-Declipse.p2.data.area={pathToInstallation}/p2
-Declipse.p2.profile=ProfileA
With above approach the org.eclipse.equinox.simpleconfigurator.configUrl
argument is properly taken and the bundles are loaded as per the pointed
bundles.info. But the eclipse.p2.profile argument is not taken properly and
the application fails to load the installation details of the profile.
Could this because org.eclipse.equinox.p2.core bundle only reads the
config.ini to load eclipse.p2.profile and eclipse.p2.data.area values?
Appreciate any help on this.
Thanks,
Dileepa
