I'm trying to make my RCP application as a single instance run,
for that i tried implementing a socket technique despite of file LOCK technique,and I'm almost done, my application behavior is such that,it can show information message saying that "there is already an instance running" and it exits , despite of this how can i make the previous running instance bring to front(maximize).

You want to use org.eclipse.osgi.service.datalocation.Location.lock(), it's what we do in the SDK. You can get the instance location from your Activator using something like:
public Location getInstanceLocation() {
if (locationTracker == null) {
Filter filter = null;
try {
filter = context.createFilter(Location.INSTANCE_FILTER);
} catch (InvalidSyntaxException e) {
// ignore this. It should never happen as we have tested the
// above format.
}
locationTracker = new ServiceTracker(context, filter, null);
locationTracker.open();
}
return (Location) locationTracker.getService();
}
