[Max Rydahl Andersen (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBDS-2176?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12698567#comment-12698567 ] 

Max Rydahl Andersen commented on JBDS-2176:
-------------------------------------------

http://wiki.eclipse.org/Equinox_Launcher:
"--launcher.library <path/to/eclipse shared lib>. This indicates the path to the eclipse shared library to use. By default, the launcher looks in the plugins directory for the matching org.eclipse.equinox.launcher.[config] fragment with the highest version. The shared library is found in that fragment.
If the path points to a directory, we use the file eclipse_<version>[.<extension>] with the highest version number.
[04/06/12 20:12:21] Max Rydahl Andersen: -startup <path/to/launcher.jar>. This indicates the path to the launcher jar. By default, the launcher looks in the plugins directory for the org.eclipse.equinox.launcher bundle with the highest version and uses it. If this bundle is not found, then the launcher will revert to old behaviour and look for startup.jar in the root.
If a relative path is given, the launcher will check first relative to the working directory, and second relative to the root of the eclipse install (which is the location of the eclipse.exe)"

thus without these it will take latest which should be fine for us - less metadata to update.
