      Without even p2 involved, I'm not sure that what you are trying to do
is in fact possible. To add something to the launcher you need to pass
several arguments to -startup in the eclipse.ini which I don't if it is
possible. If you tell me in which eclipse file you need to modify (e.g.
eclipse.ini, config.ini) then I should be able to help more.

    If they are just a bunch of files, I think you should use a "binary"
artifact, and the touchpoint action to drive where the unzipping should be
done. Here is an example of XML for a similar case in the eclipse sdk.
ATM, the main difficulty with this is that there is no tooling provided out
of the box with p2 to create such an IU (e.g. no editor like we have for
features) and you will have to generate the XML as part of your build.


Are there any samples/docs that can help me with my requirements?
