Migrating Launch Configurations [message #329442]

Hi,

I had to change the id of my launchConfigurationType extension to
something different but I still need to be able to migrate launch
configurations with the old id.

I've found that this is doable using
ILaunchConfigurationMigrationDelegate. What I've done is I've added
another launchConfigurationType that has the old id and set its
migrationDelegate attribute to my class that implements the interface
above.

Now, in the migrate(ILaunchConfiguration candidate) method I need to
change the type of the configuration to the new one. I'm able to get a
reference to the new launch configuration type via

ILaunchConfigurationType type = manager.getLaunchConfigurationType(newType);

but I can't seem to find a way to set the new type to the candidate
configuration (e.g. something like candidate.setType(newType);). Any
hints would be greatly appreciated.

(I'm using Eclipse 3.1.1.1 on WinXP)

Cheers,
Dimitrios

That should read 3.3.1.1
