Hi:
I'm a beginner for developing within eclipse RCP, and I get some problem here, please help.

I publish our RCP based product to our customer and there are always a autoupdate program to update products up to date. It job is simple: just replace every plug-in bundle which in single jar file. But when I append some new EditParts/ViewParts to new version, and customer update their version up to date, They will get 'Can not found viewpart' error, it's work fine in my develop environment and if I try to clear client's configuration folder and remove workspace folder, it works find too.

Is there a better solution to fix it?

Hi Diddy,

Your method is not very elegant. Eclipse caches much information that is
linked to the previous versions of the plugins. You should consider using the
P2 update mechanism to update your product. In case you want to continue
replacing the plugins. Try restarting with the -clean option after an update.

Regards,

Wim
