How to load IBuildModel using only API? [message #606474]

I want to modify the build.properties content of a bundle project using the IBuildModel API.

Currently, what works for me is like this:

WorkspaceBuildModel buildModel = new WorkspaceBuildModel(PDEProject.getBuildProperties(fProject)) ;
buildModel.load();

// do model changes here

buildModel.save();
But I am not happy with the above because this approach uses internal classes like WorkspaceBuildModel and PDEProject.

Alternatively, I tried to retrieve reference to IBuildModel using the following snippet:

IBuildModel buildModel = PluginRegistry.findModel(fProject).getBuildModel();
But using this way I always get null for buildModel.

What am I doing wrong?

The build model wasn't properly designed as API. We just (3.7 M2) changed the api so that a build model can be obtained.
