1) Your IApplication implementation has to switch on the return value of
the created workbench:

return (returnCode == PlatformUI.RETURN_RESTART) ?
IApplication.EXIT_RESTART
: IApplication.EXIT_OK;

2) Call

IWorkbench wb = PlatformUI.getWorkbench();
wb.restart();

(The function returns a boolean that reports the success of this attempt)

HTH & Greetings from Bremen,
