setting the default jre in eclipse via script











up vote

I'm trying to automate my dev environment setup using a simple bash script.



What I'm doing
- Pull down my projects.
- Run builds from the cmd line
- Use headless build application from cdt plugin to import my projects



What I'd like to do now is setup the default jre.



I've tried setting the following file to the workspace I'm in
.metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.core.runtime/.settings/org.eclipse.jdt.launching.prefs



But it seems to get overwritten the first time I launch the Eclipse gui.
There also seems to be some dependency on the above file relative to the location Eclipse is installed.



I've been trying all sorts of approaches to try and get this scripted but so far keep having to resort to some manually intervention via the gui.



Is the above possible to configure from a script only and to be kept workspace specific?



The following worked: http://blog.vogella.com/2012/08/07/eclipse-papercut-9-default-preference-settings-via-plugin_customization-ini-type-filter-example/
but it sets it for all Workspaces. I'd like to make the default jre workspace specific.



I'm not familiar with Oomph and would think that I could set this programmatically via script but it's been proving very difficult...
