This page collects useful tips on using Eclipse. == Identify Identifying Multiple Instances of Eclipse ==You might have learned to identify your instance of Eclipse by looking at the perspectiveor "about Eclipse". I have discovered  There is an easier way to identify theman instance of Eclipse. It's the "-showlocation" flag. It embeds the workspace path to the title bar of Eclipse.  '''Example:'''{| border="1"! !! Title bar|-| Without –showlocation || Java – Eclipse SDK |-| With –showlocation || Java – Eclipse SDK – E:/Eclipse/Eclipse WTP/wksp/....|}  Here is how you do it '''For Windows'''* Create a shortcut of Eclipse.exe* Go to shortcut's properties* Add "-showlocation"(without quote) to the end of Target field * Click OK* Use this shortcut to start eclipse '''For Linux''' * Create a shell script * type "/path/to/eclipse/eclipse -showlocation" (without quote)* Save it* Run it to start eclipseSomeone please test this on linux, I created this based on my Linux memory. == Consistent Versions (WTP Development and Target Platforms) ==If you check out your source code from HEAD and experience some odd behavior (such as the WSDL editor is missing) with an instance of the WTP target platform, make sure that you've the most updated version of the target platform. You may read "Launching the WSDL Editor" and "Bringing up the WSDL Editor in the Debugger" in the Eclipse webtools newsgroup [http://www.eclipse.org/newsportal/thread.php?group=eclipse.webtools].
