Problem:
I am looking to create a new 'plugin' for Eclipse. The plugin (in a
nutshell) is a fancy version of the Workspace selection pop up new in
3.0. I would prefer coding this in Java/SWT however since 'plugin' (used
loosely) would be started before eclipse.exe would run (more on that
below) I would need to know where the SWT jar and DLL is, as I would not
want to deploy a separate one.
Question:
Is there a standard way of finding the correct SWT.JAR and SWT.DLL that
Eclipse is using, regardless of Eclipse version or Eclipse fork?
Thanks
More info for the curious people
--------------------------------
The reason I would want this plugin to run before Eclipse.exe is called
would be so that you could not only choose what workspace to launch
eclipse in you could also choose what version of eclipse/wsad/Rational
XDE to launch. For example, one may have a workspace for 3.0 testing
only. Selecting that workspace would start the new Eclipse M8 build
pointed at said workspace. If you have a stable workspace for web
development and want to have WSAD started and pointing to it, then the
plugin would do that also.
To provide this functionality (more for myself but I'll post it when
complete) I would need to be able to figure out, regardless of what
Eclipse version or Eclipse fork is running, where the SWT information is.
