Hello all,
I have an eclipse product built against eclipse platform 3.6.2. I have
other external plugins ( no features ) that are built separately ( against
the same platform ) and my product does not depend on them, but they do
depend on some plugins in my product, these external plugins makes
contributions to the menus.
When I run my application from eclipse and I add the extenal plugins to my
launcher, they work just fine and I can notice their menu contributions. But
when I build my application using PDE ( with p2 support ) and I add the
external plugins to the dropins folder. They do get detected in my list of
installed plugins in the product installation details but the Plugin.start()
does never get called, nor I see their menu contributions, also when I check
them in the configuration tab, I notice that they are listed as < Plugin ID>
[Starting] . But when running from eclipse, in the Configuration they are
listed as [Active]
I did try to add the extension point org.eclipse.ui.startup but it didn't
change anything, it doesn't get called either.
Could anybody please help me with such a problem, or even guide me on how to
debug it, I can't seem to make the P2 to print any useful debugging
information when installing my pluigns.
Thanks a lot for your help.
Best Regards,
Ramy Siha
