Problem wirh OSGI system [message #42226]

I have a RCP application based on Eclipse 3M8. I have a plugin and a
fragment, which only contains a JDBC driver ( so a update does not force
the user to load the JDBC again ). Everything worked fine until I began
to work with the Eclipse update system.

1.) Everytime I update my primary plugin Eclipse doesn't restart
correctly. It seems that the primary plugins classloader cannot access
the fragments JAR file during the first startup.

2.) I cannot overwrite the plugin.xml of my primary plugin, the OSGI
system seems to buffer parts of the old plugin.xml ( I have context
menus I removed from the plugin.xml with the update ). The problem can
only be "solved" by removing the ./configuration/org.eclipse.osgi folder.

Does anyone know what is happening ?

I had a different update problem with 3M8/RCP, and switching over to
last Friday's integration buidl solved it.

hope that helps,

The problem relates to the configuratoin directory. Eclipse caches various
bits of information since in the normal/product case the data never changes
on disk without Eclipse being told. Consider using -clean or -dev on the
command line.
