Has anyone successfully used p2 to update features deployed with JNLP?

I'm working with an existing RCP application deployed with JNLP and there does not appear to be a valid p2 profile that can be updated. The JNLP distribution is created with custom scripts, not with the tycho-jnlp plugin. We are setting the "eclipse.p2.data.area" and "eclipse.p2.profile" values in the JNLP template.

I can do the work to convert the Tycho build to use the tycho.jnlp plugin, but I thought I'd ask here first to make sure that the JNLP / p2 combination is possible.

Thanks,

--- Patrick
