Hi all,
The situation i got stuck at is,

i am having one main plugin which needs to use the functionality(classes
and functions) provided by another plugin.Both of these plugin are
exported and are added to Eclipse plugin directory.
Now how can i check
1. whether functionality plugin is present/absent from Main Plugin.
2. If present how to activate and load the classes of that functionality
plugin .
3. How to use functionality into main plugin

PLease help me if there is any workaround for this problem.

Thanks
Narayan

Narayan,

This whole scenario is what extension points are designed to support.
I'd suggest reading some of the documentation about extension points so
you can exploit them effectively.
