Where does Eclipse look for eclipse.ini under Linux
eclipse, linux, ubuntu
Solution
There is only one file.
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 16 Aug 8 2012 /usr/lib/eclipse/eclipse.ini -> /etc/eclipse.ini
Problem
I've just been setting up a Ubuntu workstation and wanted to add some settings to eclipse.ini. When I searched for the file I found: - /etc/eclipse.ini - /usr/lib/eclipse.ini My questions are: - Does Eclipse actually use both files? - If so, in what order does it read them? - How does it merge them? - Both of the files I found are system wide, is there a location in my home directory I could put one that would effect only my instances?
