Delete cookies & cache from internal web browser of Eclipse

browser-cache, eclipse

Solution

Eclipse does not really have an Internal Browser. It just uses the default browser on the system. You can change this behaviour from

`Window > Preferences > General > Web Browser`

Clearing cookies should be done from the browser.

Let me know if this helps.

Problem

When using Eclipse Java EE IDE for Web Developers edition of Eclipse Juno SR2, and running a web app in the internal web browser, how does one delete that browser’s cookies and cache? I've searched Eclipse's Help, the Google, and StackOverflow.com, but surprisingly found no direct correct answer to this simple question.
