Main Window
The main window of the eLaunch program consists of two major sections. The left portion of the main window contains the Eclipse configuration list and the right portion of the window contains various action buttons.
Eclipse Configuration List
The Eclipse configuration list displays the configurations available for running the Eclipse program. When a configuration is selected, various action buttons and menu items are enabled to allow Eclipse to be run using the configuration, or to allow the configuration to be edited, duplicated or deleted.
There are three ways to run Eclipse using a configuration.
  1. Double click the configuration item to run Eclipse. This behavior requires that the double click behavior has been set to Run in the program preferences.
  2. Select the desired configuration in the list and press the Run button located at the top right of the action buttons section.
  3. Select the desired configuration in the list and select the Run item on the File menu.
Note that the above methods are in addition to the ways in which an Eclipse configuration can be run directly from the Windows environment.
