[eclipse-dev] Workaround for Bug 84761 - After upgrading to I20050208-08

[Thomas Watson <tjwatson@xxxxxxxxxx>]

After upgrading to build I20050208-0800
it is possible that an existing target workspace may fail to launch when
self-hosting.  See https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=84761

The workaround for this is to clear
the configuration area of your target configuration.  You can specify
to clear the configuration area using the following steps: 
1)  From the menu select Run->Run...
2)  Under Configurations select
the Eclipse Application configuration that you use to self-host
3)  Select the Configuration tab
and check the "Clear the configuration directory before launching"
box
4)  Click on the "Run"
button.

This will launch your target platform
using a fresh configuration directory which will allow the target workspace
to launch.  After successfully launching your target workspace once
you can uncheck the 
"Clear the configuration directory
before launching" box for the next time you launch the target workspace.
