Hi Ahmed, sorry for the not-after-the-weekend response, lots of stuff happening all the time :)
IIUIC you are trying to access Neo4j from different plugins in the RCP app? In that case, I would suggest to register the Neo4j instance as its own plugin and then be dependant o that in both NeoClipse and your plugin, exposing the Neo4j instance as a service. Another even more clean approach would be to actually build an OSGi wrapper bundle that exposes the neo4j instance as an OSGi service into the Service Registry which is usable not only by RCP apps but any OSGi based application (SpringDM etc etc), but RCP wraps that to some extend. To get an idea what pure OSGi based wrapping could look like look at https://svn.neo4j.org/laboratory/users/peter/shell/org.neo4j.osgi.neoservice/src/main/java/org/neo4j/osgi/neoservice/internal/Activator.java for registering the Neo4j instance, and https://svn.neo4j.org/laboratory/users/peter/shell/org.neo4j.osgi.shell.felix/src/main/java/org/neo4j/osgi/shell/felix/internal/Activator.java on tracking that service. If you need to use the Neo4j service together with NeoClipse, then IMHO we should redesign NeoClipse in order to split out and expose the Neo4j to others. You can file an issue on this!
