I tested this in Eclipse 3.4 but i think it is available in older
versions:

Open the "New Project..." wizard
Select the "Plug-in Project"
Set "Project name" and leave the other options alone
Advance to the "Templates" page
Select "Custom plug-in wizard", choose "Next"
Deselect all Templates and select the "Splash Handler" Template
Choose the kind of Splash screen you want on the next page
Finish

The generated plug-in might already fullfil your requirements.
Otherwise just modify it.

I have specified this splashHandlers extension in my product plugin's
extension and my message showing after some delay i.e.

The movement my splash screen started, its giving me a "Workspace
Launcher" dialog, if click on "ok" then only the splash message which i
have added is showing.

I need this message to show when the splash screen shown. Is it possible
or any constraints in this?.
