<h1>Launch Group</h1>
|

15 |
|
|

<p>The user can launch multiple applications at the same time or in sequential order. This is made possible by the launch configuration type: <i>Launch Group</i>.</p>

<h2>Launches tab</h2>
|
|
19 |
<p>
|

|
|
21 |
The <i>Launches</i> tab lets you add and delete launch configurations to the group.
|
|
22 |
It also allows you to temporarily disable, re-order and edit properties of the elements in the group.

<td>The Launch Mode combobox at the top of the dialog serves a dual purpose.<br>
|
|
55 |
1. It dictates the desired mode for the launch configuration being added,
|
|
56 |
and <br>
|
|
57 |
2. It establishes a 'mode' filter for the launch configurations that are
|
|
58 |
exposed to the user (for selection) in the area below the combobox<br>
|
|
59 |
<p/>
|
|
60 |
For example, when the 'debug' mode is selected, (1) only launch configurations
|
|
61 |
that support being invoked in 'debug' mode appear. Also, (2) when the launch
|
|
62 |
group is invoked, that particular child launch configuration will be invoked in
|
|
63 |
'debug' mode.
|
|
64 |

<tr><td><dt>Filter input</dt></td><td>Type in filter input to filter list of configurations by name</td></tr>
|

<td>
|
|
69 |
This checkbox acts as a sort of override to whatever mode is set in the Launch Mode
|
|
70 |
combobox. Checking this option indicates that the child launch configuration
|
|
71 |
should be launched in the mode used to initiate the launch group launch. This
|
|
72 |
needs some clarification. First, realize that a launch configuration can be
|
|
73 |
invoked from either the 'Debug' or the 'Run' actions (and some comparable
|
|
74 |
'profile' action in certain Eclipse configurations/products). That means, the
|
|
75 |
launch group itself can be launched either in debug or run mode. When you check
|
|
76 |
the "Use default..." checkbox, you're saying: "launch this particular child
|
|
77 |
configuration in the mode that the parent (launch group) is launched with." If
|
|
78 |
you do not have that checkbox checked, then the child configurations will be
|
|
79 |
invoked in whatever mode each individual child is configured with.
|
|
80 |
<p/>
|
|
81 |
Note that "Use default..." control can allow you to create a launch group
|
|
82 |
that will not be successful. For example when one or more launch configurations
|
|
83 |
selected cannot be launched in the mode dictated by launch group mode.
|
|
84 |
</td></tr>
|
|
85 |
<tr><td><dt>Post launch action</dt></td><td>
|
|
86 |
There are several actions available that control what should be done after each launch:
|
|
87 |
<li>Delay - Waits a specified number of second before launching the next configuration in the group</li>
|
|
88 |
<li>Wait until terminated - Waits until current launch is terminated</li>
|
|
89 |
<li>None - Proceeds to launch next configuration immediately</li>
