I was looking for an option to set the number of open tabs in a RCP application. Currently, I could do it by going to preference->editor settings and tick property of close editor on reaching a certain count. But I was looking for setting this property and count (like 10 active tabs) via .ini/.xml file or product file of the application. Any suggestions to this would be really helpful.
For this customization goto plugin_customization.ini of the application plugin
and add the following lines:
org.eclipse.ui.workbench/REUSE_OPEN_EDITORS=10
org.eclipse.ui.workbench/REUSE_OPEN_EDITORS_BOOLEAN=true
where the number of open editors can be configured as required. Save the file and re-run the application.
