I would like to deploy an plugin that autommatically adds files to Package Explorer view on eclipse startup.
Can someone point me in the right direction as I am an beginner in eclipse environment?

The package explorer just displays what is in your workspace (in a java specific format). So to add a file to it, you just need to create a new file in the workspace.

Creating files is done using the org.eclipse.core.resource apis. For an example, you might want to start with the WizardNewFileCreationPage in org.eclipse.ui.dialogs. PDE has several wizards based on that one to create new files (target definitions, table of contents, product configs, etc).
