Description Görge Albrecht CLA 2005-05-30 02:47:52 EDT
When "upgrading" from M7 to RC1, all classpath variables entries were lost.

Steps to reproduce:
- Start "fresh" installation of M7
- Add entry to classpath variables (Preferences->Java->Build Path->Classpath
Variables->New)
- Close M7
- Start "fresh" installation of RC1 (different directory than M7)
- point to same workspace as before
- formerly addy classpath variable entry is missing ("default" entries are
there: ECLIPSE_HOME, JRE_LIB, JRE_SRC, JRE_SRCROOT, JUNIT_HOME)

...and even worse: when stepping back to M7, all classpath variables are lost
there too (forever?)

Proposed fix

Sorry about that (I'm afraid your variables are lost for ever). But thanks to
your bug report, other users won't see this problem with the attached fix that
I will commit as soon as it is approved.
