Passing filename into RCP on startup [message #461649]

Hi,
In windows I can associate file extensions with applications, has any one done this for an Eclipse RCP application.

What I want to do is to double click on a file and have my application start with that file initialised.

Thanks

Martin

You can write an executable program(such as myapp.exe in Windows),
and associate the file extension with myapp.exe. Myapp.exe can handle the filename as a parameter for program argument.

or use Platform.getApplicationArgs() when WorkbenchWindowAdvisor#postWindowOpen
