Hello,

I wonder if you can set a project as the 'main project' in eclipse, to
let it know, which project to built/debug/run... when listening to a
hotkey?

Netbeans offers that when you rightclick a project.

Regards, Timm

There is no notion of a "main" project in Eclipse.

First of all, as long as you don't turn off the Project > Build
Automatically option, all projects are constantly kept built as you
work, so there is no need to explicitly do a build before running or
debugging.

As for easily launching the app, you can set a Preference so that it
always launches the last thing you ran: go to Preferences > Run/Debug >
Launching and you'll find an option named "Always launch the previously
launched application" - turn that on and when you hit F11 (Debug) or
Ctrl+F11 (Run) it will launch the same project that you ran most recently.

Hope this helps,
Eric
