Hey Mickael, I can give you some more or less trivial bugs to consider:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=563977 - the actual change to do is very ease, adding as option gives a bit extra work to make it not to trivial https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=560977 - even more trivial than the first one https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=46103 - I took a quick look and it should be rather trivial but a bit work with the preference stuff involved https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=491853 - should be easy, but I have not looked closer into Another bug, more in the spirit of Christoph: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=551260 - Should be well isolated but not fully trivial and might not have much degree of freedom to fix. Debugging Eclipse startup is a bit trickier but I added the necessary details to get it going. Am 16.09.2020 um 16:52 schrieb Mickael Istria: > Hi all, > > Thanks Christoph for your answer.
