[news.eclipse.tools] Re: XBootClasspath

["Jeff McAffer" <jeff_mcaffer@xxxxxxx>]

Unfortunately, if it is part of the Java runtime (JDK/JRE) then it ends up
on the effective classpath first (since the System classloader is consulted
first).  The only way I know of to change this is to use the bootpath as you
have done.
