Hi all,
Is it possible to configure multiple workspaces in Elcipse. For example: I'd
like to configure one workspace for the plugins i'm writing, and another for
the stand-alone appications.
Is this possible? I'm using Eclipse 2.1 on WinXP.
thanks in advance!

First question: is there a reason you have not upgraded to the latest
full release 3.0x? IN 3.0 and above, Eclipse can prompt you whenever it
is started for which workspace you'd like to use.
Furthermore, it allows you to change the workspace without shutting down
Eclipse.
If moving to 3.0 is not an option, you can still do it, as someone else
suggested, by setting up different shortcuts or batch files to launch
Eclipse. Basically, include the following as a command-line argument to
eclipse.exe to point it to a specific workspace:
-data <full-path-to-you-workspace-directory>
For example, my 2.1 shortcut uses this command line:
D:\Java\Eclipse\2.1\eclipse.exe -vm D:\Java\JDK\1.4.1\bin\javaw.exe
-data D:\Java\Eclipse\workspaces\workspace-2.1
HTH,
Eric

What if this weren't a hypothetical question?
