Hey all,
i have an UML profile (don't panic, it is no UML-specific questions),
which i want to reuse for several IDE's (Papyrus, RSM, etc.), but every
IDE has its own internal registration mechanism via an Extension Point.
Is it possible to declare in one plugin, several extension and set these
extensions to a kind of "optional"? The problem is, that if the required
plugin was not found in the environment, the whole plugin will not be
registered! But, i didn't want to duplicate the Profile/Resource/What
ever for every new IDE.
Thanks a lot
Timothy

Hey Timothy. Sorry. I wanted to say: If it is possible to
programatically register an extension at runtime, then you could do:
if (plugin1 is present){
register extension for plugin1
}
Now we just need someone who can answer my question. Then yours would be
answered too :-)

Is it possible to programatically register an extension at runtime?

Felix,
what do you want to say with this fragment? Was this an additional
question or an answer? :)
