Eclipse plugin installation opens an Eclipse window for each plugin installed #356

Open hohwille opened 3 months ago

hohwille commented 3 months ago

I tested #236 now and found a problem: For every plugin installation IDEasy now opens a new window (Eclipse GUI that appears and then disappears). This should be prevented and was fixed in devonfw-ide 1+ year ago.

I am not yet sure what makes the difference. Somehow related to this old code: https://github.com/devonfw/ide/blob/cdf4af5de21489f3fdcbfdab41af858822e0d598/scripts/src/main/resources/scripts/command/eclipse#L394-L396

IDEasy with trace-logging gives me this:

devonfw-ide with trace-logging gives me this:

OK. so the magic trick seems to call eclipsec instead of eclipse to run headless without GUI window. Also found the PR diff meanwhile: https://github.com/devonfw/ide/pull/911/files
