See example:
autrun.exe -rcp -i Eclipse_Galileo -g true -k en_US -e c:\Eclipse\eclipse.exe -data c:\myworkspace

If you try to launch eclipse via autrun command prompt dialog occurs showing you default workspace. The -data option does not work at all even if you add this option after executable file according to UserManual's recommendation.

I can reproduce the problem described. 

There is a workaround though: if you put the command for the application and the -data parameter in a script and enter the script as the -e parameter, then it works. 

The command for autrun would then look like this, for example:

autrun.exe -rcp -i Eclipse_Galileo -g true -k en_US -e c:\Eclipse\myeclipsescript.cmd

And in the myeclipsescript.cmd you would have the following:

eclipse.exe -data c:\myworkspace

Since there is a workaround, I'm going to close this as wontfix. If anyone has new / other arguments, please reopen.
