      void launch(ILaunchConfiguration configuration, String mode, ILaunch launch, IProgressMonitor monitor) throws CoreException
      Launches the given configuration in the specified mode, contributing debug targets and/or processes to the given launch object. The launch object has already been registered with the launch manager.
      Parameters:
      configuration - the configuration to launch
      mode - the mode in which to launch, one of the mode constants defined by ILaunchManager - RUN_MODE or DEBUG_MODE.
      monitor - progress monitor, or null progress monitor, or null. A cancelable progress monitor is provided by the Job framework. It should be noted that the setCanceled(boolean) method should never be called on the provided monitor or the monitor passed to any delegates from this method; due to a limitation in the progress monitor framework using the setCanceled method can cause entire workspace batch jobs to be canceled, as the canceled flag is propagated up the top-level parent monitor. The provided monitor is not guaranteed to have been started.
      launch - the launch object to contribute processes and debug targets to
      Throws:
      CoreException - if launching fails
    • showCommandLine

      default String showCommandLine(ILaunchConfiguration configuration, String mode, ILaunch launch, IProgressMonitor monitor) throws CoreException
      Gets the command line to launch the given configuration in the specified mode.
      Parameters:
      configuration - the configuration to build command line for
      mode - the mode in which to build command line, one of the mode constants defined by ILaunchManager - RUN_MODE or DEBUG_MODE.
      monitor - progress monitor, or null progress monitor, or null. A cancelable progress monitor is provided by the Job framework. It should be noted that the setCanceled(boolean) method should never be called on the provided monitor or the monitor passed to any delegates from this method; due to a limitation in the progress monitor framework using the setCanceled method can cause entire workspace batch jobs to be canceled, as the canceled flag is propagated up the top-level parent monitor. The provided monitor is not guaranteed to have been started.
      launch - the launch to create command line for
      Returns:
      the command line string
      Throws:
      CoreException - if building the command line failed
