Open .eclipseproduct
in the product installation folder. Or open Configuration\config.ini
and check property eclipse.buildId
if exist.

`eclipse.buildId=debbuild` :/ Found under *Help -> About Eclipse Platform*. – gsamaras Feb 09 '16 at 00:45
Help -> About Eclipse Platform
For Eclipse Mars - you can check Eclipse -> About Eclipse
or Help -> Installation Details
, then you should see the version:

In eclipse 4.2 I found the version name in readme file placed inside android bundle – Stephen Feb 04 '15 at 08:14
Go to the folder in which eclipse is installed then open readme folder followed by the readme txt file. Here you will find all the info you need.

I believe you can find out Eclipse Platform version for every software product that is Eclipse-based.
Open Installation Details:
- Go to Help => About => Installation Details.
- Or to Help => Install New Software... => click What is already installed? link.
Choose Plug-ins tab => type org.eclipse.platform => check Version column.
You can match version code and version name on https://wiki.eclipse.org/Older_Versions_Of_Eclipse
For example, check out GitEye (Git GUI client)
Or checkout DBBeaver (DB manager):
