Hi,

Is there a way to run eclipse so that it cleans/rebuilds the entire workspace right after startup?

And if not, is there a way to restart eclipse programatically with some sort of 'continue' hook so I can execute a clean programmatically after the restart I triggered before?

Setting Preferences > General > Startup and Shutdown > Refresh workspace on startup[/em] should do the trick.

Brian.

I'm not sure in which case this will trigger a rebuild of the entire workspace. My usecase is switching the groovy eclipse compiler version, which requires a restart & clean build after the compiler is switched.

You could create your own plugin that provides an extension to the `org.eclipse.ui.startup` extension point. On startup, it would do something like the following (untested):
final IWorkspace workspace = ResourcesPlugin.getWorkspace();
Job cleanJob = new Job() {
  public IStatus run(IProgressMonitor monitor) {
    try {
       workspace.build(IncrementalProjectBuilder.CLEAN_BUILD, monitor);
       return Status.OK_STATUS;
    } catch(CoreException ex) {
      return ex.getStatus();
    }
  }
};
cleanJob.setRule(workspace);
cleanJob.schedule();
