Re: [equinox-dev] Equinox 3.2 on J9/ARM problem

[Mark Rogalski <rogalski@xxxxxxxxxx>]

What level of J9 are you using?

eRCP (which is Eclipse 3.2 based) runs
on both iPAQ devices and emulators. I just checked my device and see the
".manager" directory and the temp instance file within it.  I'm
not sure we've ever tried running from \Storage Card on an emulator though.

Subject	[equinox-dev] Equinox 3.2 on J9/ARM problem

I've encountered the following problem, running Equinox 3.2 on IBM's J9
on the iPAQ emulator on startup : 

java.io.IOException: Cannot create: \Storage Card\configuration\org.eclipse.osgi\.manager\.tmp48838.instance
        at java.io.File.createNewFile(Unknown Source)

It appears File.mkdirs() on J9/ARM behaves differently.  I get a file
called ",manager" instead of the directory ".manager".
 Creating the ",manager" file manually, then running Equinox
doesn't appear to work either - the folder gets deleted & replaced
by a file called ",manager".  Repeated "java.io.IOException:
Manager is not opened." errors subsequently appear in the log.

The problem does not appear when running on J9/Windows
