Hi All,

Can I please know the difference and usage of osgi.instance.area and osgi.install.area?

osgi.install.area {-install}
the install location of the platform. This setting indicates the location of the basic Eclipse plug-ins and is useful if the Eclipse install is disjoint. See the section on locations for more details.

osgi.instance.area {-data}
the instance data location for this session. Plug-ins use this location to store their data. For example, the Resources plug-in uses this as the default location for projects (aka the workspace). See the section on locations for more details.

All from Eclipse standard help chapters where you can find lots of related info:
