Hi,

I tried to get the P2 update examples from the GIT repository rt.equinox.p2 working. Both examples projects

org.eclipse.equinox.p2.examples.rcp.sdknoautoupdates
org.eclipse.equinox.p2.examples.rcp.prestartupdate

seem to be not up to date.

In the first example I get the message
Quote:

Could not locate the running profile instance. The eclipse.p2.data.area and eclipse.p2.profile properties may not be set correctly in this application's config.ini file.

The second one throws a NPE
Quote:

Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException
	at org.eclipse.equinox.p2.operations.UpdateOperation.getInstalledIUs(UpdateOperation.java:295)
	at org.eclipse.equinox.p2.operations.UpdateOperation.prepareToResolve(UpdateOperation.java:280)
	at org.eclipse.equinox.p2.operations.ProfileChangeOperation.resolveModal(ProfileChangeOperation.java:112)

	at org.eclipse.jface.operation.ModalContext.runInCurrentThread(ModalContext.java:464)
	... 38 more

After fixing the example according to
http://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php?t=msg&goto=554285&S=db68a0daf2c1bb0915daac6bd300c108 I get the same errors.

My question: is there any working example out of the box which could be run under Eclipse 3.7 or 3.8?

Thank you very much.
Michael
