How to change the value of ${user} variable used in Eclipse templates

by

It seems that your best bet is to redefine the java user.name variable either at your command line, or using the eclipse.ini file in your eclipse install root directory.

This seems to work fine for me:

-showsplash
org.eclipse.platform
--launcher.XXMaxPermSize
256M
-vmargs
-Dosgi.requiredJavaVersion=1.5
-Duser.name=Davide Inglima
-Xms40m
-Xmx512m
