Hello,

P2 works fine in my application.
I check P2 at startup and the user can use the menu to update the product.

Is it possible to schedule a check for updates (without installation) every hour ?
I can use a timer but p2 needs a IProvisioningAgent.
How can get an instance of IProvisioningAgent ?

The IProvisioningAgent is an OSGi service IIRC. So in E4 you can get it injected. Or use the "old-style-approach" of accessing the ServiceRegistry from within an Activator.
