An Eclipse plug-in for improved run/debug launching from the keyboard

Eclipse Run Helper

Your Eclipse run history or favorites, from the keyboard

What does it do?

It gives you easy keyboard-driven access to the last few things you ran.

Great. How do I install it?

Just grab the plug-in here and put it in the dropins folder of your Eclipse installation.

How do I use it?

• Ctrl + Shift + F11 -> Run Favorites

• Shift + F11 -> Debug Favorites

• Ctrl + Shift + Alt + F11 -> Run History

• Shift + Alt + F11 -> Debug History

• Press a key from 0 to 9 or [a, s, d, f, g, h, j, k, l] to select an item from your history

• Press "t" to re-run your last (JUnit) test run

I've got a problem. Help!

If you've found a potential bug, or would like to request a feature then the best place is the issue tracker. If you want to discuss something then feel free to send me a message.

What's next?

I've got a few ideas for what I'd like to add, probably in this order:

• Restart web server (Tomcat/Jetty/other)
• Open run/debug configuration dialogs
• User defined keybindings to specific launch configurations
