How to launch an external swing-based application from Eclipse [message #167862]

I was searching the web all day to find a good example on how to launch a
swing based application from eclipse on separate thread, but couldn't find
any good article. Should I create a separate plug-in for that? All I want
is to have an icon in eclipse that will launch a separate Java swing based
application, with no integration with eclipse what so ever, just a
launching point. Any suggestions and example?

Thanks
Suzanna
