Hi all!

I want to launch multiple instances of an eclipse 4 application project.
Whenever I try to start the app a second time, a dialog box appears saying:

-->
Could not launch the current application because the associated workspace is in
use by another Eclipse application

Path\xyz.product

Buttons: Edit... Exit
<--

Is there a way to add a flag in the launch config which allows more instances?
Do I have to handle that programmatically ?

Thanks for help
Max

No not yet - not sure there's a bug for this yet to not create a lock
file. You need to search bugzilla and if you can't find one file it.

Yes u can't do it programmatically. but manually u can do some workaround.
1. open run configuration
2. create new eclipse product with same configuration.
3. add all required the plugin.
4. now u can run 2 instance of your application by using 2 run configuration.
