How to change Eclipse's dock Icon

changing-eclipse-icon.md

1. Navigate to Eclipse's installation folder
2. Open eclipse.ini and find the '-product' flag. Mine was something like this: -product org.eclipse.epp.package.jee.product
3. Open the plugins folder and look for your product folder. It looks similar to your product flag (mine was org.eclipse.epp.package.jee_4.4.0.20140612-0500)
4. All you need to do now is to replace the png files (javaee-ide_x32.png, javaee-ide_x64.png, ...) with the icons that you want.
5. (Optional) In case you want to use the brand new "flatty" icon, just navigate to plugins\org.eclipse.platform_4.4.0.v20140606-1215, copy the flat png icons and repeat the step 4.

Thank You

I cant find any folders inside the plugin folder. Except a jar file. can you be specific where to look for those folders.

@imanzal don't install with Eclipse Installer.

thank you ,the change of "product" fix the blinking of icons and editor with debian and kde... the example .ini is
wenikore/EclipseInic@9e3b0ab

I just tried to do the same and got in the same issue than @imanzal and it is true that as @ilkeraksoy mention I'm using the installer. Now I'm not going to stop using it but there must be a way to do this in the installer version too. Should someone would find a way to do it on the installer version it would be nice to share. Should I find a way I'll put it here.
Regards.

@imanzal on Windows the plugins are put into a repository folder at C:\Users\<user>\.p2\pool\plugins\<product_folder> I expect a similar folder strucutre with unix

thank you soo much

It doesn't work exactly, the icon changes by itself. Fix it, it breaks down, does anyone know a solution?

If they share the same C:\Users\<user>\.p2\pool\plugins\<product_folder>, is there a way to have different icons per installation?
E.g. I have 3 installation for the same projects but on different git-branches and I want them be distinguishable by the their icon.
