Hi,
Ø
That would be really slick if it could auto-discover the workspace.
Ø
you mean auto-discover .project, right ?
There could be a number of really interesting workflows related to this.
I agree that searching up in the directory hierarchy until a .project is found
(Like git finds the .git folder by searching upwards) is perhaps one of the
most interesting.
Auto-discovering workspaces is also interesting (to keep Preferences) but harder,
since the workspace .metadata Is often located in a completely different folder than the projects.
Eclipse would probably have to globally remember recent workspaces … something
That reminds me of Oomph Preference Sharing to some extent.
Slightly related but in a different direction, I’ve filed an enhancement request years ago
talking about “workspace description files” (similar to visual studio .dsw):
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=245405
Not trying to feature creep here, but I thought you might find this interesting...
Thanks,
Martin

Max, thanks for the tip of opening on the command line! It worked on Linux.
Tried with a relative path too ? Thats what failed on me in past with a segfault ;/

I disagree. Yes you can use them side-by-side and I do that frequently.
Primarily because the "eclipse myfile.txt" is semi-broken on OSX.
If this was fixed I would use eclipse way more.
