Description Kevin Horowitz CLA 2005-12-19 15:28:58 EST 
eclipse/links files can not handle relative links.  I need to ability to build an installation that can work in any installed location, and the root of the tree is not known at the point that the tree is built. Most other items can resolve a relative path, and create the absolute location needed.  The links files can not resolve from a relative location currently.
