Startup Extension Point Help [message #104792]

I am creating a plugging where I need to set a system property before the view
starts up. I implemented the startup extension point, but my view starts before
this is run. In essence, the plugging is a system properties helper that the
user can store preferences of system properties to set when the workbench starts
up. They will define these preferences in a preference page and the system
properties will be viewable in a view at the bottom.

Currently, the properties set in the startup method are set properly but I have
to refresh the view to get the new ones to show up. Is there a way that I can
make sure the properties the user defines are run BEFORE the views start up.

This is not a JDT specific question. Either ask on eclipse.platform or
file a bug report: I would expect my plug-in's startup code be called
before any other of my code.
