Hi, Dave,

It doesn't appear to be documented, no.  I'm not even sure that it's an
officially supported function, so it's probably best to treat it as
"experimental" or "unspported" or "us at your own risk."  I tried it,
and it *seems* to work.  :-D

I expect that official support for this would entail either enhancement
of mkbuild to include System Builder projects or construction of a
mkbuild-like script to encapsulate the details of launching an
Eclipse/Equinox application.
