i did it like this:

Dimension screenSize = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getScreenSize();
configurer.setInitialSize(new Point(screenSize.height, ScreenSize.width));

Another solution is that you write the following lines in
postWindowCreate() method of your class that extends the
WorkbenchWindowAdvisor

if(configurer.getWindow().getShell() != null)
configurer.getWindow().getShell().setMaximized(true);

Pete,

All I had to do was to call setMaximised(true) on the shell object from
ApplicationWorkbenchWindowAdvisor.java Just override the the
postWindowCreate() method to do this.

Mahesh

/**
* Overriden to maximize the window when shwon.
*/
@Override
public void postWindowCreate() {
IWorkbenchWindowConfigurer configurer = getWindowConfigurer();
IWorkbenchWindow window = configurer.getWindow();
window.getShell().setMaximized(true);
}
