As I am working for different client at one given point of
time, so sometimes it becomes cumbersome to switch the workspaces for different
clients. Even sometime it is mandatory to open more than one eclipse and work
with them in parallel. So managing them and switching between workspaces not
only consumes times but also irritates.
I wanted to tackle this issue by creating different
shortcuts for each workspace. Eclipse has easy solution for my problem.
To create shortcut to open eclipse with a particular workspace
follow the steps mentioned below.
1. Browse to eclipse installation folder and right click on eclipse.exe.
2. You will see a shortcut at your desktop. Open the shortcut properties menu which pops up a shortcut properties.
3.In the target add the following text -data <YOUR_WORKSPACE_LOCATION>
4.Click on OK.
Now once you click on the shortcut, it would not prompt you
to select the workspace and it will open the workspace associated to the
location specified.
Now you can create as many as shortcut you want and refrain
from switching between the different workspaces.
