Associating java file with eclipse does not work [message #148825]

Hi,
I would like to double click on a java file in windows explorer and get it
opened in the currently running eclipse instance. I have an association
between java files and eclipse in windows but the association does not
work as it should. When I double click on a java file in the windows
explorer a message "completing install" appears, a workspace directory is
created in the current directory. After a while NEW instance of eclipse is
started and the file is not even opened. I double click an other file and
now I receive an error message in the log file. Does anyone know how I get
this to work?

Please search through past messages before asking your questions - this
question is asked and answered about once a week in these newsgroups.
In fact, it was just discussed in the past day or two in another thread.
The answer is that current versions of Eclipse don't support this, but
there is a plugin you can get that will help a little bit.
The full feature you want might be in the plan for 3.0 release.

Thank you for your answer Eric. Is there a quick way to search through the
archives? I searched through every individual page in the archive with
browser provided search. Ofcourse this way I will not find anything in
reasonable time.

Most newsgroup reading programs offer some kind of search feature.
You can also select Search from the left side of the main Eclipse.org
web page.
