Hi there.

I have an update site as a zipped file. I would like to perform a
product update using this file as a patch.
The problem is that we have a an installation file which is 160 M and we
want to send patches to the user which are much lighter, like several Mb
and this does not involve the whole product re-installation.
I added a simple dialog for selecting the patch file and checking
whether it is a proper update site, but cannot figure out a simple way
to make eclipse APIs "eat" this file. I am using 3.4 eclipse.
Can anybody give me a hint?

Thanks in advance for your answers!

Strange that nobody even suggested
UpdateManagerUI.openInstaller(window.getShell());
I will probably need to cut down the interface a bit, as I just need an
archived site.
