Re: [orca-list] Hint for Eclipse users

... sorry accidentally hit enter on the website :-)
So here it is:

Shutdown eclipse first.
Open up the eclipse.ini file with your favorite editor and go to the end of it.
Add this vm parameter which will be shifted to eclipse:
-Dorg.eclipse.swt.browser.DefaultType=mozilla


After starting eclipse again goto window -> preferences -> general ->
web browser and select these two entries:
# from the first radio buttons: use external web browser
# from the second ones: use firefox (not system default!)

Restart Eclipse and try e.g. to bring up a javadoc window.

hth
Jann!
