How can I launch multiple eclipse IDE with different workspaces?

I need to run multiple eclipse with different workspaces. For Mac, I can launch eclipse using open -a Eclipse.app --args -data WORKSPACE. When I execute open -a Eclipse.app --args -data DIFFERENT_WORKSPACE, I just redirected to the existing eclipse.

Solution

  • try:

    open -n -a [PathToEclipse]/Eclipse.app --args -data DIFFERENT_WORKSPACE

    -n will open a new instance of the application(s) even if one is already running.
