I am building 2 versions of our product. One is built on 3.7.2 and the other on 4.2.0. I am having issues with the splashPath in both.

On 3.7.2, there is a small issue. The first time you launch the product after install, the default eclipse splash logo displays. Subsequent launches displays our custom splash logo defined by the osgi.splashPath setting.

On 4.2.0, I am unable to get the custom splash logo to display at all.

I have verified the plugin that contains the splash logo in both.

Thanks,
John

Hello John.

Can you please provide us more information, are you using the Environmental Policy to set that property, how are you adding, what line are you adding, do you see any error in the logs when the custom splash is not displayed?

Best Regards.

Take a look at the headings “Make your product active” and “Replacing the splash screen” here: http:”\\\\www.eclipse.org\\articles\\Article-Branding\\branding-your-application.html .

We are using both. The setting eclipse.product works in both 3.7.2 and 4.2.0. Both are being set in the environmental policies under the properties tab and end up in the config.ini. I see them being inserted in the config.ini correctly.

John,

SDC configures eclipse.ini with -showsplash eclipse runtime option, this is why the osgi.splashPath. Could you try to add a Command line argument to override this option and use yours ?

http://help.eclipse.org/indigo/index.jsp?topic=%2Forg.eclipse.platform.doc.isv%2Freference%2Fmisc%2Fruntime-options.html

-showSplash <bitmap> (Executable, Main)
specifies the bitmap to use in the splash screen. If specified, the launcher may be able to show the splash screen before starting the Java VM. If not specified, Main will find the bitmap using the osgi.splashLocation and osgi.splashPath properties.

Best Regards
