Eclipse Plugin Dev – How to get running Java applications?

Problem:

I’m new to Eclipse plugin development.
I’m trying to find a way to get information about what Java applications are running at the moment, and which configuration they were launched from.

How am I able to get this information?

Edit: I’m not looking for how to create a launch configuration, but rather see what applications are already running, launched through Eclipse. Basically, what configurations have been launched, and are still running through Eclipse.

Solution:

Use ILaunchManager.getProcesses() to get the list of running processes that the launch manager knows about:

ILaunchManager manager = DebugPlugin.getLaunchManager();

IProcess [] processes = manager.getProcesses();
