    <p>In Eclipse, products are define using the <a href="http://help.eclipse.org/ganymede/index.jsp?topic=/org.eclipse.platform.doc.isv/guide/product_def_extpt.htm" rel="noreferrer">products extension point</a>. Among other things, this extension point defines branding icons. These affect the windows task bar, and also the icons in the alt-tab list.</p> <p>What you could do is create your own plug-in that defines new products that each use a different icon, these products can then just run the regular eclipse application. You can switch between products on the command line.</p> <p>The product extension point would be like this:</p> <pre><code> &lt;extension id="my_product_1" point="org.eclipse.core.runtime.products"&gt; &lt;product application="org.eclipse.ui.ide.workbench" name="My Product"&gt; &lt;property name="windowImages" value="icons/sample2.gif" /&gt; &lt;property name="appName" value="My Product"/&gt; &lt;property name="aboutImage" value="product_lg.gif"/&gt; &lt;property name="aboutText" value="My Product"/&gt; &lt;/product&gt; &lt;/extension&gt; </code></pre> <p>You can create several in the same plug-in, each referring to a different icon. You can see an example by creating a new plug-in using the RCP Mail Template.</p> <p>You refer to this product on the command line with "-product [plug-in id].[product-id]". So you can create several windows shortcuts with different command lines, specifying different products and workspaces:</p> <pre><code>eclipse -product org.my.plugin.my_product_1 -data /path/workspace1 eclipse -product org.my.plugin.my_product_2 -data /path/workspace2 </code></pre> <p>In Eclipse 3.3 and earlier, you can just copy your plug-in into the eclipse/plugins directory for it to be used. In 3.5 there is an option during plug-in export to "Install into host". In 3.4 (and 3.5) there is the dropins folder. </p>
