Dear Equinox readers and developers.

I'm sorry if I ask a question that has been answered previously. I did
ask this previously in the e.p.rcp newsgroup.

I am currently integrating a licensing solution into our RCP-app, and I
have run into some trouble.

I cannot get 'rid' of workbench contributions that originate in a plugin
that's not started. It seems that all plugin.xml's are read and all
delegates get created regardless if the plugin is started or not.

How can I make the platform not create the delegates? Is there another
approach that I can use?

Thank you all in advance,
kind regards,
Emil E Hedin

Plugin.xml's of all resolved plugins are read on startup and the UI
constructed from that.
If the workbench UI was supporting dynamic removal (which is not the
case in 3.0) doing what you want would consists in dynamically
uninstalling the plugins. For now, what you can do is only install the
licensing plug-in first and then install the other plugins only if
activation suceeded.
Befire that I encourage you to look at eclipse 3.0.1 which has some
fixes in that space.
