Optional non-jar locking behaviour on Windows

[Romain Bioteau]

Hi all,

I'm working on an Eclipse RCP application and we struggle with locked jar issue on Windows.

Could you points out how do you use the apache NonLockingClassloader in order to force Eclipse to use this classloader.

Cheers

Romain

Hi Romain,

Per: http://groovy.codehaus.org/Groovy-Eclipse+2.1.2+New+and+Noteworthy#Groovy-Eclipse2.1.2NewandNoteworthy-OptionalnonjarlockingbehaviouronWindows

you need to enable this property: -Dgreclipse.nonlocking=true

You can set that in the eclipse.ini file or pass it on the command line when launching eclipse.  This will prevent any locks that are normally getting held by the URLClassLoader.  Unfortunately, late in the day (just before release), I discovered some other locks - these are not from URLClassLoader, they are from eclipse infrastructure and locks get taken when editors get opened.  If those locks are your problem, we will need to get that fixed asap.

cheers,

Andy
