[p2-dev] Re: how can the user be stopped from uninstalling an RCP application

Thanks Pascal,
considering that the product is built headless in two stages (see below) :
can you just please tell explicitly when and where (in which file) should I set that property ?

1)
                <java jar="${launcher.jar}" jvm="${javaexec}" fork="true" failonerror="true">
