Eclipse shortcut to run a class


I have an Eclipse project where I often launch the same java class. I have added my run configuration to the favorites menu, but to launch it I still need to click on the run-drop-down menu and click the icon - is there any way to associate a shortcut to this? When I searched for it I got lost in all the plugins & other things which seemed to be not so simple.

edit: Let me clarify, I want something I can type the moment I start eclipse, regardless of what page I'm viewing, so no "run last" or "run current"; I want F12 to link to "launch foo.bar.MainClass".


Solution

  • You should put in a feature request in the eclipse bug tracker (or vote up an existing equivalent feature request) or code it yourself.
