| For launch configurations, a name is often generated on behalf of the user which is simply the type name of the Java application, Java applet, or the JUnit test class. In some instances, a user may have classes with the same name in different packages or projects. Creating launch configurations for each will reuse the type name and add <b>(nn)</b> for each configuration created after the first. Looking in the <b>Run Configurations</b> or <b>Debug Configurations</b> dialogs or the pull-down for <b>Run</b> or <b>Debug</b>, it may be difficult to determine via the name which type the configuration is referring to. |
| <p>To alleviate this, a new set of preferences has been added to specify that the launch configuration name generated use the fully qualified type name. Once set, new configurations (either manually created in the <b>Run Configurations</b> or <b>Debug Configurations</b> dialogs or as a result of specifying <b>Run as...</b> or <b>Debug as...</b> from the context menu will qualify the generated name. Existing configurations are not altered. |
| </p> |
| <p>To specify the new preferences, go to <b>Preferences > Java > Launching</b> |
