Not sure if you already have a reference to the launch configuration,
or if you are creating your own launch config, if not you could cycle
to all existing launch configurations using

   DebugPlugin.getDefault().getLaunchManager().getLaunchConfigurations()

then look for one defined for the active project using

ILaunchConfiguration config.getAttribute(ICDTLaunchConfigurationConstants.ATTR_PROJECT_NAME, (String)null);

once found you can use the same getAttribute() method to retreive some
other info like command line parameters:

config.getAttribute(ICDTLaunchConfigurationConstants.ATTR_PROGRAM_ARGUMENTS, (String)null);

See ICDTLaunchConfigurationConstants for other attributes.
