How to Reset Eclipse RCP perspective programmatically

I have made RCP product file in which I have to reset perspective every time. Is there any way by which it will reset perspective before it load ?

PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getActiveWorkbenchWindow().getActivePage().resetPerspective();

Eclipse 3.x - for Eclipse 4.x, see greg's answer.

If you always want your RCP to start in the same state you can specify the flags

-clearPersistedState -persistState false

in the Program Arguments section on the Launching tab of the .product file.

-clearPersistedState causes Eclipse to drop any persisted state during starting.

-persistState false stops Eclipse for persisting the state on exit.

This is for Eclipse 4.x only.
