/**
 * The framework to run.  This is used if the bootLocation (-boot) is not specified.
 * The value can be specified on the command line as -framework.
* Startup class for Eclipse. Creates a class loader using
* supplied URL of platform installation, loads and calls
* the Eclipse Boot Loader.  The startup arguments are as follows:
* <dl>
* <dd>
*    -application &lt;id&gt;: the identifier of the application to run
* </dd>
* <dd>
*    -arch &lt;architecture&gt;: sets the processor architecture value
* </dd>
* <dd>
*    -boot &lt;location&gt;: the location, expressed as a URL, of the platform's boot.jar.
* <i>Deprecated: replaced by -configuration</i>
* </dd>
* <dd>
*    -classloaderproperties [properties file]: activates platform class loader enhancements using 
* the class loader properties file at the given location, if specified. The (optional) file argument 
* can be either a file path or an absolute URL.
* </dd>
* <dd>
*    -configuration &lt;location&gt;: the location, expressed as a URL, for the Eclipse platform 
* configuration file. The configuration file determines the location of the Eclipse platform, the set 
* of available plug-ins, and the primary feature.
* </dd>
* <dd>
*    -consolelog : enables log to the console. Handy when combined with -debug
* </dd>
* <dd>
*    -data &lt;location&gt;: sets the workspace location and the default location for projects
* </dd>
* <dd>
*    -debug [options file]: turns on debug mode for the platform and optionally specifies a location
* for the .options file. This file indicates what debug points are available for a
* plug-in and whether or not they are enabled. If a location is not specified, the platform searches
* for the .options file under the install directory.
* </dd>
* <dd>
*    -dev [entries]: turns on dev mode and optionally specifies comma-separated class path entries
* which are added to the class path of each plug-in
* </dd>
* <dd>
*    -feature &lt;id&gt;: the identifier of the primary feature. The primary feature gives the launched 
* instance of Eclipse its product personality, and determines the product customization 
* information.
* </dd>
* <dd>
*    -keyring &lt;location&gt;: the location of the authorization database on disk. This argument
* has to be used together with the -password argument.
* </dd>
* <dd>
*    -nl &lt;locale&gt;: sets the name of the locale on which Eclipse platform will run
* </dd>
* <dd>
*    -nolazyregistrycacheloading : deactivates platform plug-in registry cache loading optimization. 
* By default, extensions' configuration elements will be loaded from the registry cache (when 
* available) only on demand, reducing memory footprint. This option will force the registry cache 
* to be fully loaded at startup.
* </dd>
*  <dd>
*    -nopackageprefixes: deactivates classloader package prefixes optimization
* </dd> 
*  <dd>
*    -noregistrycache: bypasses the reading and writing of an internal plug-in registry cache file
* </dd>
* <dd>
*    -os &lt;operating system&gt;: sets the operating system value
* </dd>
* <dd>
*    -password &lt;passwd&gt;: the password for the authorization database
* </dd>
* <dd>
*    -plugins &lt;location&gt;: the arg is a URL pointing to a file which specs the plugin 
* path for the platform.  The file is in property file format where the keys are user-defined 
* names and the values are comma separated lists of either explicit paths to plugin.xml 
* files or directories containing plugins (e.g., .../eclipse/plugins). 
* <i>Deprecated: replaced by -configuration</i>
* </dd>
* <dd>
*    -plugincustomization &lt;properties file&gt;: the location of a properties file containing default 
* settings for plug-in preferences. These default settings override default settings specified in the 
* primary feature. Relative paths are interpreted relative to the directory that eclipse was started 
* from.
* </dd> 
* <dd>
*    -ws &lt;window system&gt;: sets the window system value
* </dd>
* </dl>
