Description Dennis Klemann

2005-06-15 10:14:32 EDT

When I start a second instance of a single Eclipse install, there's the 
message "Workspace in use, choose a different one."

In the following option screen, I'd like to have another checkbox option 
than "Use this as default [...]", namely "Use this workspace for this time, but 
the default workspace stays default".

AFAIK, I can't set this behavior right now:
- When I check the box, I have a new default workspace
- When I uncheck it, I have no default workspace at all

Cheers,
Dennis

No plans to add another option, you can now press cancel and you will return to the WS selection dialog.
