Icon Request: Eclipse

[giupardeb]

I installed eclipse from source, Unfortunately I don't find eclipse.desktop file inside /usr/share/applications/ or ~/.local/share/applications/

Hello,
Eclipse icon is already themed. But, as you said, it is not in the path, so icon themes are unaware of its existence. I don't use eclipse personally, so can't be of much help. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/8419099/where-does-eclipse-look-for-eclipse-ini-under-linux is probably what you are looking for.

On the other hand, if you know the path of your executable, and no eclipse icon is already there in your dash (the default one), you can create you own ~/.local/share/applications/eclipse.desktop file as:

[Desktop Entry]
Version=1.0
Terminal=false
Icon=eclipse
Type=Application
Exec=<path of eclipse>
Name=Eclipse 

Hope this helps.
