Change Application text from header/titlebar [message #799992]

Hi,

From Eclipse header area (titlebar), text changes when we change from Java perspective
to Debug perspective for example.

Text is displayed like this: Java - com.sample.www/plugin.xml - Eclipse SDK - D:\eclipse

What Eclipse does is nice and more than what I need.

In my application, I can use org.eclipse.ui.perspectives extension and change name attribute value to change perspective name, but how can I configure or code to make header area text look like this: Java - Eclipse SDK ([perspective name] - [product name])?

thanks,

Take a look at
org.eclipse.ui.application.IWorkbenchWindowConfigurer.setTitle(String)
