Description arne anka CLA 2005-03-15 04:13:04 EST 
having problems to start eclipse and no internet-access drives mad! there's no 
reasonable way to find startup-parameters if one tries to start eclipse from 
scratch -- specifiying something like "--help" results in case of problems in a 
rather useless logfile but no information is given which parameters may be used.

25334 provides neither asolution nor a plausible reason for closing. as long as one needs a running 
eclipse to see the startup params i consider it a bug (e g the -data & -area switches to get the to eclipse 
obviously unknown "multiuser" behaviour ... )
