[news.eclipse.platform] headless not entirely headless

Hi all,

I am using a Headless antRunner application to build and deploy an RCP application. However, if things go wrong (e.g., a dependency cannot be resolved), ant throws a message and wants to open a (GTK) error dialog telling me this. This is fine, until I try doing all this in a cron job, and it can't open the error message -- then antRunner dies.

Is there a way to make a fully headless application. I use -nosplash, but this is just for the splash screen. I saw a previous post about this, and it was suggested to use the startup.jar, but this requires me to hard code the launcher version in my cron job.

thoughts,
ian
