Hello!
I am working on a small tool for myself to organise a larger Eclipse product build. In fact, I have to build a whole line of products, so managing my builds and organising architecture is a challenge. I want to avoid typing the existing structure information into my modeling tool. I would like to reverse-engineer the data from manifest files.

I have successfully used the PDE core api to access plugin information, but I could not find a parallel capability for features. The facilities I have found are deprecated, so I am not keen on building on them.

Can anyone point me to an example where this is done?

Thanks,

JGS
