Eclipse Launch Interface Changes

A few days ago I saw someone modify the eclipse's launch screen, so I tried to modify it. This article summarizes how to modify the Eclipse 4.5 (codenamed Mars) boot interface.

　　Method One: Modify the splash.bmp start diagram

The Eclipse splash screen is actually a splash.bmp image in the eclipse\plugins\org.eclipse.platform_4.5.1.v20150904-0015 directory. Modify or replace it with a custom picture, and the name is still saved as splash.bmp.

　　Method Two: Modify the Eclipse.ini configuration file

Eclipse configuration file Eclipse.ini save location

1 Original Eclipse.ini configuration file2 -startup3plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_1.3.100.v20150511-1540. Jar4 --launcher.library5plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher.win32.win32.x86_64_1.1.300.v20150602-14176 -product7 org.eclipse.epp.package.java.product8 --launcher.defaultaction9 OpenFileTen --launcher. Xxmaxpermsize One 256M A -showsplash - Org.eclipse.platform - --launcher. Xxmaxpermsize the 256m - --launcher.defaultaction - OpenFile - --launcher.appendvmargs + -vmargs --dosgi.requiredjavaversion=1.7 + -xms256m A-xmx1024m

　　Uncomment the org.eclipse.platform to change the absolute path of the custom splash.bmp or relative path to the relative Eclipse.ini file. such as the relative path is "./splash.bmp" and so on.

Xxmaxpermsize - 256m - --launcher.defaultaction - OpenFile + --launcher.appendvmargs - -vmargs +-dosgi.requiredjavaversion=1.7 A -xms256m at-xmx1024m

Using both of these methods, I successfully modified the Eclipse Mars launch interface. For more information about the Eclipse.ini profile, you can refer to the Eclipse official description eclipse.ini .
