How to Daisy Chain Eclipse Run Configurations

I use one Eclipse "Run Config" to build/compile my project, one "External Tools Config" to start the server and another final "External Tools Config" to stop the server.

So in the day to day coding, I make a few changes and want to test them out.

So I have call the stop server (2 seconds run time), then the build (30 seconds) and then the start server (30 seconds). I have to do each of these steps individually and manually. I find I can get distracted and forget to do one step or another.

Is there a way to set up an Eclipse Run Config that will run each of those steps in sequence automatically?

Think this is what you are looking for. By using the Launch Group within the Run Configurations, you can launch multiple applications at the same time or in sequential order.
