How to change Eclipse's dock Icon
  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.

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.
