upgrade preference at product update [message #1754394]

Hi,

I need to modify some of my preference settings stored in the preference store at the first time the new RCP version starts up. To be more precise the first time a specific workspace is opened with a new version.
I guess it should be similar to the workspace upgrade process when updating the Eclipse IDE.

My RCP is base on the IDE.

Does anyone have a hint where to look for a solution?

It seams there is no "official eclipse way" to do it. So I implemented my own update mechanism into the PreferenceInitializer extends AbstractPreferenceInitializer and storing the current preferences version into a preferences as well.
