Hello! I installed the plugin in the 2019-06 eclipse and neither the "Open Workspace" menu nor the workspace badges appear. Everything worked with the previous eclipse version. Am I the only one experiencing issues with 2019-06? Is there any workaround? Thanks!
I was using this plugin on eclipse Luna and it was working perfectly. I recently upgraded to eclipse Photon and installed plugin again. Now, everytine I restart eclipse, badge gets cleared. After I go to eclipse->preferences->workspace : and change workspace name to different value, it comes back. Any idea ?
Yes, this is a problem caused by Oomph interfering with the badge. Just make sure you set a name for the workspace other than than the last segment of the path to the workspace and you should be good. See https://github.com/turesheim/eclipse-launcher/issues/5281
Using Eclipse EE 4.10, it is not possible to find the plugin in MarketPlace using the internal client whatever the query string.
Browsing in the MarketPlace using the internal navigator, it is possible to find the plugin but the Install button does not work.
I installed the plugin adding the source site as source in the 'Install new software' menù.
Not working on Eclipse Oxygen 2 - 4.7.2 with java 8 on Mac Siera 10.12.6. The plugin installs, but could not see the "open workspace" option in the list of File menu.
This plugin really helps when working with multiple workspaces.
If you face the badge-problem, you can set the workspace name explicitly:
General > Workspace > Workspace name

The tool is really useful on OS X. Unfortunately since I updated to Eclipse Mars .2 the badge icon disappears some seconds after eclipse launch. Any chance to get this fixed?
The problem here is that Eclipse Oomph changes the badge label to whatever is set in the workspace name preference. If not set, Oomph will clear the badge label while this utility will use the last segment of the workspace path. I'll work with the Oomph team to remedy this.
In the new 2.0 version some code was introduced that required Java 1.7 instead of 1.6 as before. Make sure Java 1.7 or newer is used for Eclipse if you're also using this plugin. If you're on Luna you should also be on at least 1.7 since most bundles require this.

I just migrated to a mac, and not being able to open multiple eclipse instances was a problem to me. This plugin is very useful, solves this problem perfectly. Just what I needed!

Not available on Marketplace

I love this plugin. Recently tried installing via install button but didnt work. Searched specifically using name, but couldnt find in marketplace
Finally installed using update site. But having it in marketplace helps.

Thanks for the praise! It appears there is something wrong with the search handling in the MPC client. I've filed a bug report https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=544445
Many thanks
