Concurrent EclipseStarter.run(...) [message #129393]

I am using EclipseStarter to run a eclipse application like this:

try {
EclipseStarter.startup(startArgs, null);
EclipseStarter.run(startARgs);
} finally {
EclipseStarter.shutdown();
}

Does the EclipseStarter.run(...) support concurrent execution? If I have 2
threads both calling EclipseStarter.run(...) at the same time after the
EclipseStarter.startup(...) call?

Or does one have to wait for the other to finish?

No EclipseStarter.run does not support multiple threads calling it. It
is intended to take over the main thread and make it available to the
eclipse application container to launch main thread applications on.

If you need to launch multiple applications at the same time then you
will need to consider launching Using the ApplicationDescriptor services
from the Eclipse application container. For more information see
http://wiki.eclipse.org/Equinox_Application_Model_Demo

HTH.
