I’m running a fresh install of MyEclipse 6.5. I have several workspaces that I use and want to start Eclipse with a specific workspace. Normally one would use the -data option on the eclipse command line, but the version of eclipse installed into my Pulse/Software/MyEclipse 6.5 directory doesn’t seem to recognize the -data option, in fact, it causes eclipse to immediately crash with:
JVM terminated. Exit code=1
/usr/local/java/jre/bin/java

-Xmx768M
-XX:PermSize=128M
-XX:MaxPermSize=256M

-jar /data/usr/Pulse/Software/MyEclipse 6.5/../../Common/plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_1.0.1.R33x_v20080118.jarHow do you do this with MyEclipse?
You will have to go to Windows > Prefs > General > Startup and Shutdown and check “prompt for workspace at startup” and restart MyEclipse. Now you will have to select the workspace at startup.
Hm – not exactly optimal, but I guess that will work.
So – why was the -data option removed when the standard eclipse binary supports it?
Guess I could go back to the old way of installing MyEclipse rather than using the “all-inclusive” version.
