    Do not use the `reference:` URL scheme for installing a bundle in the installer.

    • Example: -runnoreferences: true

    • Values: true,false

    • Pattern: true|false|TRUE|FALSE



    -runnoreferences

    The -runnoreferences instruction controls whether the reference: URL scheme is used for installing bundles in the OSGi installer. On non-Windows systems, reference: URLs are used by default for efficiency. Setting -runnoreferences: true disables this behavior and uses regular file URLs instead. On Windows, this instruction is ignored because reference: URLs are never used due to file locking issues.

    Example:

    -runnoreferences: true
    

    Use this instruction if you need to avoid reference: URLs for compatibility or deployment reasons.
