Evening Moovida: Still tagging you on this one (for what I hope is background knowledge?). As you pointed out the trick is not only getting the drop ins folder generated (which we now do…) But also making sure it is scanned correctly ..
The docs here http://wiki.eclipse.org/PDE/FAQ#My_product_fails_to_start Indicate the following "product" configuration <configurations> <plugin id="org.eclipse.core.runtime" autoStart="true" startLevel="4" /> <plugin id="org.eclipse.equinox.common" autoStart="true" startLevel="2" /> <plugin id="org.eclipse.equinox.ds" autoStart="true" startLevel="2" /> <plugin id="org.eclipse.equinox.p2.reconciler.dropins" autoStart="true" startLevel="4" /> <plugin id="org.eclipse.equinox.simpleconfigurator" autoStart="true" startLevel="1" /> </configurations> And I noticed this exact same setup in udig.product; as such I am copying it over to net.refractions.udig.product What I could not do however was recreate this using the product editor; it would not let me add the "org.eclipse.equinox.p2.reconciler.dropins" or "org.eclipse.equinox.simpleconfigurator" plugins. I checked and they are available as part of eclipse still so it is not like they have been replaced by anything. So it could be we do not depend on them? If you remember how you did this last time perhaps you could tell me what is going on …. For now I have just cut and pasted the XML into the product file and am hitting generate again; so the result should be no better or worse then we had before. -- Jody Garnett
