Is there a way to start an instance of eclipse, passing it some sort of parameter telling it to use a specific workspace?
The problem I'm trying to solve is that I have a workspace for work projects and one for personal projects. I'd like to be able to tie these to workspaces to separate shortcuts that I could launch independently.
From http://help.eclipse.org/help21/topic/org.eclipse.platform.doc.user/tasks/running_eclipse.htm:
Use the following command-line argument:
-data your_workspace_location
For example,
-data c:\users\robert\myworkspace
you can also use UNIX-style relative path names such as
-data ../workspace
even under Windows, in case something doesnt like colons or backslashes in parameters, like Jumplist Launcher
