Hi all!

I'm newcomer in PDE API and I have a little question :
"org.eclipse.pde.core.plugin.PluginRegistry.getActiveModels()" doesn't return ALL my active models. There's only one over two of my targetPlatform plugins directory. Moreover the method returns NONE of my workspace plugins...

did I do something wrong ?

thanks before Very Happy

I've never seen an issue with this method. It should return all active models in the manager's table, which should match up with what is in the state. Are any of your plug-ins sharing the same symbolic name? Plug-ins with the same name are removed from the target and are overridden by projects in the workspace.

Thanks for replying.
No all my plugins have different symbolic names... They are all checked in my "Run Configuration". But none of them are returned by PluginRegistry.getActiveModels()

Same result with PluginRegistry.getAllModels()...

I have modified the targetPlatform (65 plugins at start).Then I added a directory (which contains about 70 plugins). And finally there's all my workspace plugins (10 plugins). So a call to PluginRegistry.getAllModels() should return 65+70+10 models, agree ? But there's only the 65 plugins of my original targetPlatform Mad

Duplicate bundles (same name/version) are removed from the target, and workspace plug-ins will replace the equivalent bundle in the target (even with getAllModels()). Not sure what else to tell you. You can debug through the PluginRegistry and see what is in the PluginModelManager model entry table. What version of Eclipse are you using? If you can provide a test case to reproduce you can file a bug against PDE UI and I will try to look at it in more detail. I am currently in the process of refactoring a lot of the related code.
