There's nothing built into the platform to support licensing, and as far
as I know none of the Eclipse.org projects touch on that subject.
I used to work at a company that built Eclipse plugins and RCP
applications, and we had to build our own licensing mechanism based on a
commercial license management product; we were unable to find any simple
or Eclipse-specific solution.
