i worote a plugin that has an extension 'org.eclipse.core.runtime.applications'
now i want to invoke this application from within an other plugin.

in the 'Platform Plug-in Develpoer Guide' i found this:

Declared applications can be run directly from the main platform launcher by specifying the -application argument where the parameter is the id of an extension supplied to the applications extension point described here. This application is instantiated and run by the platform. Platform clients can also use the platform to lookup and run multiple applications.

but i can't find a hint on how a Platform client can lookup and run other applications

You have to browse the plugin registry, find the extension you want under
the app extension point, create an executable extension and run.
I'm not aware of any other mechanism.
