Show loaded Plug-Ins of RCP Application [message #1233839]

Hello,

I copied a plugin to the folder "plugins" of my RCP application. I'd like to know whether it's possible to look up whether that plugin was successfully loaded at startup.

I've read that you can usally check the state of all Plug-Ins in a RCP application under "help -> about" within your application's GUI. Unfortunately, there is no such button in my application.

Is it possible to view a list of all loaded Plug-Ins somewhere inside the Eclipse-IDE?

Just for clarification purposes:
I don't need to know whether the Plug-Ins of the Eclipse IDE itself loaded, but of my RCP application.

Thanks in advance.

You can use the OSGi console [1] to introspect an OSGi runtime.
