How to set target platform using command line

[Santosh Kumar]

Hi,

I am looking for some help to set Eclipse target platform using command line. 

The requirement is to run an application ( specifically ant runner from command line)  which needs different target platform from installed eclipse. 
Is there way to set the target platform using command line parameter ?

Hello

I think the "base localtion" property  in the build.xml of PDE specifies the target . so you can pass that as key and value as path of your target platform .

<arg value="-DbaseLocation=${baseLocation}" />

<arg value="-Dbaseos=${baseos}" />

<arg value="-Dbasews=${basews}" />

I think passing -DbaseLocation="/CUSTOM-PATH" will set the target platform  for the ant runner

the details of properties are here http://help.eclipse.org/helios/index.jsp?topic=/org.eclipse.pde.doc.user/reference/pde_builder_config.htm

hope this helps

regards
