The BCH file extension identifies a file associated with the Eclipse integrated development environment. Eclipse uses command files to hold information about commands used by the development environment.
The file belongs to Eclipse's own supporting files, and the exact information stored in a BCH file depends on the Eclipse component that created it.
Eclipse is an open-source development environment available for Microsoft Windows, Apple macOS and Linux or other Unix-like systems. BCH files are tied to Eclipse and are not a general interchange format.
Open a BCH file with the Eclipse installation associated with it. On Windows, macOS or Linux, Eclipse may read the file as part of its own data rather than opening it as a normal document.
If Eclipse does not recognise the file, it may belong to a different application or may be intended only for internal use. Avoid editing or renaming it, because this can prevent Eclipse from using the associated commands.
There is no standard conversion from a BCH file to another format. It is an Eclipse-specific commands file, not a document normally exported for use in another application.
Keep the file with the Eclipse installation or project that uses it. If the commands must be moved, copying the file as part of the relevant Eclipse data is more appropriate than converting it.
