Eclipse RCP apps have main configuration file eclipse.ini (or <app-name>.ini) where users can change default launch parameters.
The problem is: every time user reinstall application it loses all changes in this file.
Proposed solution: allow users to create separate default configuration file which will remain after application uninstall. Exact location must be application-specific, it maybe something like ${user.home}/default-eclipse-config.ini.
This will significantly simplify life of users who perform frequent application update or who use some automation for app install on end-user machines.
Original feature request in DBeaver project: dbeaver/dbeaver#35080
I think it will be a useful addition for Equinox infrastructure.
Currently we are trying to build custom Equinox launcher for DBeaver with these changes on our side. But it is quite tricky because of sophisticated compile/link procedure on different platforms. It would be wonderful to have it in the upstream codebase.
