How to run Eclipse .launch file in Intellij

Issue

I was using Eclipse for a while to develop a Java/web project, we have some scripts with the ending .launch. The file to be launched starts with the following two lines:

> <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
> <launchConfiguration
> type="org.eclipse.jdt.launching.localJavaApplication">

Now I have started to work with IntelliJ?
