• -consolelog – log everything in workspace/.metadata/.log to the console where you launched Eclipse as well • -debug – more verbose console output • -console – start the Equinox OSGi console to interact with OSGi directly • -noexit – when Eclipse closes, keep the OSGi console running until you type ‘exit’ or hit CTRL-C so you can keep debugging See Where Is My Bundle? for an overview of how to use the OSGi console for diagnosing problems. Helios/3.6 only: If the installation seemed to have completed successfully but you can’t seem to find anything in the user interface, you may be seeing a problem with a shared installation setup problem with Eclipse. See bug 322929 for more details. This bug will likely manifest itself if you, for example, unzipped Eclipse in the Program Files folder or some place like /opt/ or /usr/local. The Helios SR1 (Eclipse Platform 3.6.1) release should have this problem fixed. We recommend upgrading immediately.
