Hi all
Till now , it has not been clarified if one can have more than two eclipse projects on the same ubuntu machine.
In windows clicking on Eclipse executing file will run individually(in different workspace) and simultaneously(in the same time) different versions.
How can I proceed this in ubuntu.
I have kepler and I want to apply some changes to Indiao project is it possible?

I keep at least two and sometimes more panel icons (launchers) on Ubuntu
(and back in my SuSE days) for Eclipse, sometimes the same version, more
often for different versions. Right now, on my latest Linux Mint
(Cinnamon) top panel (à la Gnome), I have Keppler and Indigo.
/home/russ/dev/keppler/eclipse
/home/russ/dev/indigo/eclipse
etc.
Editing these launchers, however, I have different command paths as
noted above. When the paths are the same, I specify different workspaces
(because you can't launch Eclipse twice on the same workspace).
But, I could launch them from the command line. It's just that,
obviously, when you type
$ eclipse &
assuming it's on PATH, you're going to get exactly one and always the
same instance of Eclipse launched, right? This has nothing to do with
Eclipse and everything to do with just how stuff works, even under Windows.
I see you speak of the .desktop file. This reminds me that you're
probably dealing with Ubuntu Unity (what I fled to Mint to solve). While
I still labored under the abuse of Ubuntu Unity, I made these notes at
different times, which may or may not be helpful to you. Remember, you
can't have several eclipse.desktop files with the same name.

I hope some of this helps. Best of luck.
Cheers,
Russ
