Help, please…

I would like to use ${string_prompt} to get program arguments:

${string_prompt:User} ${string_prompt:Password}

works fine, except that it displays whatever value was typed in last. Is there a way to set a default value, and if so, how do I do that?

Thanks…

Can you give us some information as to what you are doing? I really have no idea what you are editing, or what type of program you are writing so I don’t understand the question.

Riyad-

I am working on a Java project. I select Run.Run, select the Java Application, then click Arguments. I want to prompt for the args passed to void main(String[] args), which works fine, but I can’t set defaults on the prompts.

Ahh ok, sorry I don’t have experience using this functionality. It’s a base Eclipse feature if you are on any of the Eclipse news groups you should be able to ask.

Also did you check the docs to see if it is covered there?

Riyad-

I realized that was a base feature after I sent my reply… MyEclipse integrates so nicely, I forgot there is a difference! I’ve looked quite a bit; I post a request at the Eclipse site.

-Thanks, Steve

Now I’m curious what the solution is, keep us posted with what you find out.
