Build ID:  M20070212-1330

Steps To Reproduce:
1.Update features via Update Manager
2.After update has been done, a final wizard appears consisting of option to restart the application
3. If we select the option for application restart,the application does not restart, it just gets closed.

Comment 1 Dejan Glozic CLA 2007-09-20 07:29:19 EDT 
Update is simply calling the restart API - we are not responsible for whether it works or not.

Moving to UI for now, please redirect if needed.
Comment 2 Dejan Glozic CLA 2007-09-20 14:28:59 EDT 
Tod, why are you returning this to us - we are just calling application restart API?
Comment 3 vivi CLA 2008-02-19 07:26:00 EST 
Can you please provide feedback on status of this issue?

Thanks.
Comment 4 Tod Creasey CLA 2008-02-19 08:12:00 EST 
This is not currently being looked at.
Comment 5 vivi CLA 2008-02-19 08:15:09 EST 
Is there any workaround to make the application restart?
Comment 6 Kim Horne CLA 2008-02-19 14:25:52 EST 
It would be helpful if you could provide us with a testcase for this.  Ie:  an update site (attached as a zip) that would allow us to easily replicate this issue.

I have just tried this with 3.2.2 and loading WST using the Callisto update site. Does this only happen with your updates or can you make it happen with the ones provided by Eclipse?

The step provided initially were based on the steps the I used in my RCP application.I couldn't relpicate in Eclipse 3.2.2 .

Also in addition to these step provided, I also find an interesting behaviour->
I can find my RCP Application's process in Processes List of "Window's Task Manager" even though the applcation doesn't ReStart!
Comment 9 Tod Creasey CLA 2008-02-28 08:12:34 EST 
What version is your RCP app based on?
Comment 10 anandram CLA 2008-02-29 01:26:41 EST 
Eclipse :Version: 3.2.2 Build id: M20070212-1330
Eclipse RCP Plugin : version 3.2.0.v20060605

      These were used for creating the RCP Application
Comment 11 Paul Webster CLA 2009-04-16 14:16:00 EDT 
This works in 3.4.2 and 3.5.  Please open with a sample adapted from the RCP Mail app if not.
