The workspace selection dialog is not showing up. It just starts with the
default location (<current dir>/workspace).

Changing severity since I deleted all my old Window shortcuts to my workspace 
since I had the nice workspace selection dialog.
Comment 4 Andrew Eidsness CLA 2004-04-23 13:50:14 EDT 
The fix has been released and will be in the next integration build.

RE: comment 6:

I just tried 200405190010 on XP and the workspace prompt showed up as expected.  
What platform were you running on?  Is it possible you were launching with a 
-data parameter?

Yesterday I moved to 3.2M6 from 3.2M5. I reused my existing 3.2M5 workspace.

When I first started 3.2M6 I got the workspace selection prompt. 
I selected my old workspace and further selected "not to be prompted again".

Everything was fine.

Next day when I started 3.2M6 it starts with the default workspace. I have to use "Switch to workspace" to use my old workspace. No errors in error log.

I changed pref so that Eclipse will prompt me for the workspace and restarted. But Eclipse 3.2M6 does not prompt anymore.

Should I reopen this bug ?

The fact that it does not use my workspace by default - should I log this as a different bug ?
Comment 9 Missing name CLA 2006-04-04 17:38:05 EDT 
I now tried 3.2M5 and both the "prompt" and "using the nominated workspace by default" functionality works fine.
Comment 10 Missing name CLA 2006-04-12 21:55:27 EDT 
Reconfirmed - does not work for 3.2M6 - should I reopen this bug ? Has anyone else verified this ?
