Re: [eclipse-dev] Starting multiple instances of eclipse with different workspaces


Luxury!  I didn't even get a log entry - the splash screen just vanished with no message and no log file was generated.

Apparently you can run with "-configuration file://myfile" and this will get around the lock problem.

The rational seems to have something to do with Install/Update but I will let them answer that part.

What is the rational behind not allowing multiple running instances of
eclipse each with its own workspace?
Thanks, Kai
