Eclipse command line argument

In: Eclipse|Java

9 Jan 2008

Eclipse IconWhen working with Eclipse I usually have multiple workspaces I am are working with (different projects, clients, branches, …). I found a useful command line argument that displays the path of the current workspace in the window tittle bar – showlocation. Just add it to your eclipse.ini file, mine looks like this:

-showlocation
-showsplash
org.eclipse.platform
--launcher.XXMaxPermSize
256m
-vmargs
-Xms40m
-Xmx512m
-XX:MaxPermSize=256m
-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote

I noticed that showlocation only works when added as the first argument.
