How to start Eclipse IDE in headless mode?


Can we start eclipse in headless mode without creating custom application and using that application as an argument to start the eclipse in headless mode.

eclipsec -application test.customapplication

Here test.customapplication is an Application which implements the IApplication.

Without creating custom application can we use any inbuilt eclipse applications to start the eclipse in the headless mode ?

Here i am looking for exact existing application that can be used to start the eclipse in the headless mode.


Solution

  • No, there is no mechanism for this.

    You must create a custom application implementing IApplication.
