Description Knut Radloff CLA 2002-07-16 17:02:09 EDT
build 20020716

During the second startup of a fresh workspace I get an error message "Unable 
to restore workbench state" with the following in the log.

!SESSION Jul 16, 2002 17:01:25.578 ---------------------------------------------
java.version=1.3.0 subset
java.vendor=IBM Corporation
BootLoader constants: OS=win32, ARCH=x86, WS=win32, NL=en_US
Command-line arguments: -os win32 -ws win32 -arch x86 -data d:\workspace -dev 
bin -Xmx256m -Xss32k -install file:D:/eclipse/
!ENTRY org.eclipse.ui 4 4 Jul 16, 2002 17:01:25.593
!MESSAGE Unable to restore editor - createElement returned null for input 
element factory: org.eclipse.ui.internal.dialogs.WelcomeEditorInputFactory

I did not do anything in the workspace prior to closing and restarting. I.e., I 
closed the workbench right after it started.
I also get the "Completing Eclipse install" message every time I start Eclipse.

Either need to remove "-dev bin" or add "-update" to the command line.
