Windows file association to open with Eclipse/CDT editor.

How can I open a file with Eclipse/CDT when I double click it in windows explorer?

I set the file association in windoes to eclipsec.exe and it opened Eclipse/CDT, but not the file.

If Eclipse is open, it says "Workspace in use..."

Ideas?

• This article may be somewhat helpful, it talks about associating content types with specific editors:

  http://www.developer.com/java/other/article.php/3648736/Eclipse-Tip-Define-Custom-Content-Types-to-Identify-Your-Data-Files.htm

  In addition, an [Eclipse book on Google Books gives instructions on associating file types.][2]

  Also, see this.
