Using eclipse OSGi and runtime in stand-alone project [message #48757] Thu, 07 July 2005 10:46 Go to next message

Hello,

I would like to use the Eclipse OSGi implementation, and the extension
points mechanism in a stand-alone application, without eclipse RCP.

I'm new to eclipse, and I'm having trouble finding documentation on
using plugins outside the Eclipse workbench.
Could someone point out some documentation I should read to do this? At
least, how do I instantiate the runtime from my own main class, and how
do I configure the plugins to load.

Thank you,
Catalin

Nothing special is required. You just need to write an application that
does not start the workbench. To do so, create an extension to the
org.eclipse.core.runtime.applications extension point.

When you create your launch configuration, pick "eclipse application"
and select the application you created. If you want to make sure that
you are not using any ui code, you can disable all the plugins except
yours, org.eclipse.osgi and org.eclipse.core.runtime in the plugins tab
in the launch configuration (it is also possible to do it globally by
changing the target platform in the pde preferences).
