What surpised me after the installation of MyEclipse 9 (and the update of this weekend).

I can’t pin the MyEclipse icon correctly to the taskbar.
By correctly I mean:
I have pinned the MyEclipse icon to the taskbar (simple clicking the right mouse button on the icon, after it’s started and chosing “pin it to taskbar”).
When I do start it again, I have two myeclipse icon’s in my taskbar: the one that was pinned and the one of running myeclipse app.
When I click the pinned myeclipse icon again, it will start a new myeclipse app.

Before MyEclipse 9.0, I always had one MyEclipse app icon, also when running the app.
Any idea why this is?
I tried several things, like removing and adding it again, but keep showing the same behavior (not with many other pinned windows 7 app’s).

Ed,

This issue is actually specific to Windows 7 and 64-bit Eclipse/Java applications, not just MyEclipse.

There is an Eclipse bug covering this issue, currently unfixed but there is a work-around that you may want to try if this is really important.

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=314805#c21

Hope this helps,

Thanks, I will give it a try
