Running a 3.x RCP application with Eclipse 4.2 [message #896953]

According to a tutorial by Lars Vogel, if I grab my 3.x RCP application and I've already got it configured to use features, I should be able to run it from Eclipse 4.2 without making any change.

I tried but I keep getting the following error:

!SESSION Fri Jul 20 15:54:00 CEST 2012 -----------------------------------------
!ENTRY org.eclipse.equinox.launcher 4 0 2012-07-20 15:54:00.725

Is there anyone who could help me finding out what's going wrong? Please let me know what details you need.

I've got it working by changing the configuration and adding all the required plugins again.

Now that the application is starting up, I'm still having an issue in my ApplicationWorkbenchAdvisor because the following call which worked on 3.x is returning null now:

this.getWorkbenchConfigurer().getWorkbench().getActiveWorkbenchWindow().getShell()

Any clues? Thanks!

Update:

I found the solution, I should have been doing this in the window advisor.
