Description Reto Urfer CLA 2011-02-11 13:14:48 EST
The PDE help says:
It is also possibly to add arbitrary config.ini properties to your .product file, however there is no tab the editor for this, so it must be done manually by editing the .product file as xml.

	...
	<configurations>
	   <-- The product editor will generate start level information like this:
	   <plugin id="org.eclipse.core.runtime" autoStart="true" startLevel="4" />
	   -->                                     
	   <property name="osgi.bundles.defaultStartLevel" value="4" />   
	   <property name="osgi.requiredJavaVersion" value="1.5.0"/>    
	</configurations>
	...


This is working fine but if you later on open the .product file again with the "Product Configuration Editor", do some changes and save them all the added property definitions are removed again.

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
