How to change value of 'Read timeout' of Eclipse's Update Manager?
eclipse, equinox, plugins
Solution
As Frank mentioned you can set the timeout options in the eclipse.ini, here's the documentation.
"use -DpropName=propValue as a VM argument to the Java VM, set the desired property in the config.ini file in the appropriate configuration area"
I set the following to get round my timeout issue:
-Dorg.eclipse.ecf.provider.filetransfer.retrieve.closeTimeout=3000
-Dorg.eclipse.ecf.provider.filetransfer.retrieve.readTimeout=3000
