How can I change the window icon in my Eclipse (PDE) application

Question

I have a product I want to change the window icon, is it possible to happen and how?

I use PDE(plugin development) by developing a product based on Eclipse CDT.

Answer 1

Create a folder graphics in your plugin and you should add there 6 images with the following sizes:

• 16x16
• 32x32
• 48x48
• 64x64
• 128x128
• 256x256

In your *.product you will have to configure the path to each icon:

<windowImages 
    i16="graphics/icon_16.png"
    i32="graphics/icon_32.png"
    i48="graphics/icon_48.png"
    i64="graphics/icon_64.png"
    i128="graphics/icon_128.png"
    i256="graphics/icon_256.png"/>

You should also configure the build.properties file to deliver in your product the graphics folder. To achieve that, add this line to the bin.includes variable from the build.properties file: bin.includes=some_existing_line,\\ graphics/

You can also achieve that through the *.product editor provided by the eclipse development tools. Right-click on the *.product file and select Open with->Product Configuration Editor .
In the bottom of the editor select the Branding Tab , then you can Browse each image:
