[p2] How to update the launcher? [message #892725]

Hello,

I just managed to integrate p2 update into my RCP application Smile

...but how to update the launcher (<application>.exe)?
When I got it right the launcher normally does not change.
Only in case of Eclipse version update it has to be updated.
How to achieve this?

When you are building your product from a .product file, the generated metadata should take care of it all.

I added the launcher (eclipse.exe) as a root file to a feature.
After p2 update of this feature the original eclipse.exe gets replaced.
Under Windows the new eclipse.exe gets active after the next restart of the RCP application.
