Very good article. Thank you. Now I’m trying to set -data @noDefault through some config file (e.g. config.ini) but I can’t get it working. Do you have any idea how to do it? I tried osgi.instance.area=@noDefault but it doesn’t work.

Wow, an author who cares!
Thanks for the jar. I’ve missed TableLayout,
but MigLayout is becoming more familiar over time.
Great, I have my own workspace(s), thanks.
Now on to custom projects and the CNF.

Thanks for the heads up, seems LatticeLayout is gone. I've updated the post with a direct link to the jar that I uploaded to Hexapixel (which contains sources and javadoc too). Here's the same link: LatticeLayout Jar. I guess it's MigLayout from here on out.

Nice article, thanks.
LatticeLayout link broken, any ideas?

[...] top of all this fun t-shirt selection, I’d like to point people to an excellent post by Emil Crumhorn discussing how to add the workspace chooser dialog in an RCP application. [...]

Great stuff, thanks!

@ElvisFromHell – I think that simply ensuring that users do not have write privileges to the application folder will cause RCP to use their home folder for this data.

Nice post!
But I still have the problem that the plugins org.eclipse.osgi, org.eclipse.equinox.app and org.eclipse.core.runtime create an own folder containing “.fileTableLock” (among others) in the rcp application’s installation “configuration” subdirectory.
This is very inconvenient when running over network.

Do you have an idea how to solve this?
