How do I programmatically add a launch config to the run history? [message #269847]

Hi,
I have a wizard that creates a new Java project and populates it with
Java files. I also create a launch configuration for it.
How can i programmatically set this to be the last run configuration?
i.e. so that the user just has to press the green run button or press F9
to launch the project without having to select the launch.

Thanks,
Niall

There is no API for setting the last launch. It is controlled internally via
the actual order of launching. Allowing API to change this could be
confusing to users (i.e. why has my last launch changed when I did not
launch anything?).

I see why it would be a bad thing to have it available too easily.
But I still need to do it.
What if i start launching their project automaticaly but kill it before
it starts? ;)
