Eclipse plug-in creates new workspace everytime when its executed

I want to work on an existing project which is stored in workspace say wrkspc1. The plug-in by default creates a new empty workspace say wrkspc2. In order to work on existing project I moved my project into wrkspc2 as the root path of workspace cannot be modified. Now each time I am executing the plug-in, it is creating a workspace on system (wrkspc2). Due to this the project that I had placed in the workspace gets deleted.

Is there any way by which I can work on existing project by any means?

Aim:

My project is located at suppose path : C:/User/XYX/wrkspc2

Step 1: I want to open this workspace

Step 2: An existing project within the workspace - say project2

Step 3: Build the project

Code:

IWorkspace workspace = ResourcesPlugin.getWorkspace();

//The statement when executed creates en empty workspace for each execution

After changing the path in Run Configuration menu, it worked. Now it does not create workspace but instead point to one which is given in Run Configuration
