Look under the 'Branding' tab of your .product file.
Also, I guess your splash screen should be a .bmp image.

Thanks for your reply..

We tried it under the branding page of the product by checking the add a
progress bar check box mentioning the values for x-offset , y-offset...and
also the message , text color...but still its not showing up the progress
bar in our splash screen..of course our splash screen is a .bmp file

Thanks
Aravind

Add
org.eclipse.ui/SHOW_PROGRESS_ON_STARTUP=true
to your plugin_customization.ini file.

Also don't forget to Synchronize the configuration before launching the
product...

You need to add this file to the project containing your .product file, then
also make sure the corresponding
plugin.xml uses it:

A snippet from plugin.xml:

<plugin>
<extension id="ide" point="org.eclipse.core.runtime.products">
<product name="xxx" application="org.eclipse.ui.ide.workbench"
description="%productBlurb">
<property name="preferenceCustomization"
value="plugin_customization.ini"/>
</extension>

</plugin>
