Hello,
I have created an RCP product in Helios and have exported it. I have created the dropins folder in my install location via p2.inf like instructions.configure=\
mkdir(path:${installFolder}/dropins);
I have all p2 plugins as dependencies and 'org.eclipse.equinox.p2.reconciler.dropins' in the Configurations, Plugins, tab of the Product, with default start level and Autostart=true.
I am still unable to produce the 'dropins' effect. Could anyone please help find what I am missing out here ?
Regards,
Murthy

Hi,
I figured out a solution for getting through the dropins implementation working. I had to add 'org.eclipse.equinox.ds' in my product dependencies and have a configuration as below
<configurations>
<plugin id="com.test.rcp" autoStart="false" startLevel="6" />
<plugin id="org.eclipse.equinox.p2.reconciler.dropins" autoStart="true" startLevel="5" />
<plugin id="org.eclipse.core.runtime" autoStart="true" startLevel="4" />
<plugin id="org.eclipse.equinox.common" autoStart="true" startLevel="2" />
<plugin id="org.eclipse.equinox.ds" autoStart="true" startLevel="2" />
<plugin id="org.eclipse.equinox.simpleconfigurator" autoStart="true" startLevel="1" />
</configurations>
Regards,
Murthy

Hi, Thanks for this info, it helped me get the dropins folder at least partially working in my product. My problem now is even though the IU's have been added when I drop plugins in there and restart, the bundles don't get loaded, e.g. the reconciler does not install the bundles and the bundle.info file does not get rewritten.
...
Another example of the same issue is when I drop the PyDev plugins and features into the dropins folder, All the IU's are added and the installation history even shows PyDev has been installed, but again none of the bundles have been loaded so none of the PyDev features are available.
Can anyone help me with this issue?
EDIT:
I tried deleting my p2 configuration area and things started working much better, at least giving me error messages about unresolved dependencies, so I think this question is moot.
