Starting plugin on Eclipse startup [message #305337] Thu, 29 June 2006 15:49 Go to next message
Eclipse UserFriend
Hi.
Is there a way to mark that a specific plugin should be started (means:
the plugin.start will be called) when Eclipse is started, and not only
when first plugin operation is triggered?
I want refreshPluginActions to run when eclipse is started, thus my
plugin's actions will enable/disable correctly.
Currently, they are refreshed only after first plugin operation.
Thanks!
Hana

Hana,

I'm not sure there is a way, but I'm quite sure you should be strongly
discouraged from doing this. If all plugins did this activation on
startup thing, startup would take a very very long time...

Hi,

You can achive this by using the extensionpoint org.eclipse.ui.startup
But like Ed says, if all plug-ins are activated early the overal Eclipse
start-up will be a slow
