Did you install the Pivot plugin in Eclipse? If you do, there will be two additional options when you run the program from Eclipse:
1) Run as Pivot Application - where you select the source file with the main class, or 2) Run as Pivot script - where you select the .bxml file. You can run a Pivot Application from Eclipse as a Java Application (without using the plugin) but it would have to be written in a way that is different than many of the Pivot demos. Hope this helps.
