Hello,
I use the EclipseStarter to start up the runtime and then I install a
number of plugins (all as jar files).
But there is one plugin which is not packed as a jar file but is
contained in a folder with the typical plugin structure (plugin.xml,
../META-INF/MANIFEST.MF, ... and a number of jars which are used later).
So does anyone know how to install a plugin from such a folder instead
of a jar file using the BundleContext?
Thanks a lot.

OK, this seems to work but I have to test it next week again.
But I thought I tried this before asking the question and I got the
error that osgi cannot find the plugin.xml, the MANIFEST.MF, ...
.... strange ;)
Thanks
