RE: [platform-core-dev] Error Log Size/Growth Settings?

Title: Message

The Error Log view isn't necessarily IDE specific. Right now it is because org.eclipse.pde.runtime depends on org.eclipse.update.ui.forms which depends on org.eclipse.ui.ide, but I believe the forms stuff is being pulled out.

 

The bigger problem is that the LogView class and its actions are internal. If you can get the path to the log file, maybe you can just java.io.File.delete() the file. Try Platform.getLogFileLocation().toFile() . And if you have no log view, you don't have to worry about clearing the view.

What option does the RCP client have for clearing the log, assuming the Error Log View is IDE specific?
