I was wondering if there is a specific reason, why my eclipse product .exe does not start, if the parent directory of the exe-file contains a #.
I am using Windows XP (SP3) and exported my eclipse application. The resulting .exe file saluts me with the following screen:

Any ideas?
Just a guess.
The launcher is implemented in a way that the command line options are interpreted by a batch script … and the
#is interpreted as the beginning of a line comment.Edit:
The ‘eclipse.exe’ loads the ‘eclipse.ini’. Here you can make comments with a
#at the beginning of the line. This does not prove that eclipse uses a batch script for loading (to be sure one should look at the source), but it is an hint that the comment-assumption is valid.
