Eclipse on USB-drive [message #115214] Mon, 07 November 2005 13:09 Go to next message

Hi,

I'm using eclipse 3.1.1 (windows) and i have unzipped the package to my
usb-drive.

My problem is that, when i change the preferences on eclipse, they won't
save to my usb-drive.

I know i can import and export the settings from eclipse, but is there a
good way to load settings at startup? I tried looking at the startup
parameters, but i couldn't find anything to try :/

Thanks in advance,
Jyrki Heinonen

Preferences are stored in the workspace that you select/create, not with
the Eclipse program files.
When you first started Eclipse, it should have prompted you for a
workspace location. If you did not specify your USB drive as the
location for that workspace, that is why the preferences are not stored
there.

HTH,
Eric
