Hi Pradeep and All,
To give a brief introduction on this; the purpose of this implementation is
to be able to pre-provision several products in to one distribution and
select the product to load at startup.
Each product can be considered a separate Product profile and at startup by
passing an argument like -Dprofile={Product.Profile} we should be able to
load the required product.
After doing some background research on Equinox configurations I did a POC
by manually constructing the product distribution structure to support this
(as shown below), and point the equinox.configuration directory to relevant
{Profile}configuration directory at startup. This will load the set of
bundles relevant to the given Product.Profile.
*Things to do;*
Need to look at on how to support feature installations separately to the
loaded Profile. Currently after loading a particular profile and installing
features the newly added bundle entries are not persisted.
I'm currently working on changing the carbon-p2-plugin goals to construct
the modified product distribution structure.
Will update the thread on the progress.

Modified Product structure to support multiple-profiles*
