dynamically adding plugins any time soon? [message #53743] Mon, 12 May 2003 10:18 Go to next message

Originally posted by: billy.hotmail.com

I know, you can't add a new plugin once eclipse started,
you have to shutdown and restart again, as eclipse is
using static registry.

Anytime this is going to change? This eats a lot of
time during the development, especially during
code-test-debug. Even though I reduce the set
of plugins to the very minimum that I need, startup
time is still pretty long.

It would be nice if you can deploy a plugin dynamically,
and have one single instance of eclipse running contanstly,
and you just deploy and undeploy the plugin. Would
have a lot in development, for sure.

any comments?

thanks

Checkout the Eclipse Equinox sub-project. Dynamic plugin loading is one of
their main objectives.
