Hi,

you can use IWorkbench.restart() to restart the workbench - I guess this
should work for your RCP application too.

Thanks Stefan!

i don't want to restart the application,i want to relaunch the
application,because if i restart the application it will take same command
line argument but i want my application to take different commad line
argument.I think this is possible only if we relaunch the application.

How we can make the application restart or relaunch to take different
commandline arguments?
For example i don't want splashscreen while startup of the application(i
used -noSplash as command line argument) ,after some process i am
restarting the application now i want to show the splashscreen.So how i
can implement this?

Thanks,
Jayam

I don't think that there's a restart/relaunch difference.

You could change the corresponding lines in the config.ini and then
restart the workbench. Like you do with the locale change, you remember?

Javam,
See this message I posted back in February:
http://dev.eclipse.org/newslists/news.eclipse.platform.rcp/m sg20658.html

The problem is probably that you are not setting the "eclipse.exitdata" property
with the new command line.
