Description Jeff McAffer

Some time ago we talked about moving the startup.jar code from the org.eclipse.platform project to some other project since it is now mixed in with various bits of Platform branding etc.  Perhaps something like org.eclipse.equinox.startup?  (Avoiding "launcher" is a good thing because the exe is also the launcher see platform-launcher). 

Note bug 159119 was entered for the creation of the requred project.

+1
org.eclipse.platform is now an odd mix of plumbing and branding code.

There have been a number of changes in this area.
Can this be closed now?

The startup.jar is not in org.eclipse.equinox.launcher.
