48    It is important to note that the file which is used by the system (either the default or the one
49    which is specified by the user) is <b>exclusive</b> and does <b>not</b> represent the intersection between
50    multiple files. That being said, if the user specifies a particular file to use, then the contents of the default
51    file must be merged with it in order for the class loader enhancements to take effect for the
52    classes in the Eclipse Platform; the contents of the default file are not automatically used.
