Before p2, one could write a custom install handler with a feature that was executed to do any 'custom' task during installation.

What is the equivalent in p2 get the functionality of custom install handlers?



I see a limited set of instructions here -
http://wiki.eclipse.org/Equinox_p2_Touchpoint_Instructions
but they are not enough for what we want to do.

How do we execute custom java code during installation?



We need to edit the eclipse.ini file and set the -Xmx property to a value based on whether we are running inside a 64 bit or 32 bit env.


I tried creating a p2.inf file in my feature with the following line
instructions.configure = addJVMArg(jvmArg:-Xmx900m);

but the eclipse.ini still has the old -Xmx argument.
