Hi all,
I have a project builder which, among other things, should modify
some parts of the plugin.xml file. More concretely, I want to automatically
add an additional enablement-condition to actions defined in the plugin.xml
file. Therefore, I wanted to ask whether there is some API to read in
specific extensions (the actions in the actionSet) and modify part of it
(the enablement)?
Thanks in advance for any help.
Regards,
Ovidio

There's no public API to do this... here is a bug you may be interested in:

Paul & Chris,
thanks a lot for the pointers. I have ended up using the IPluginElement
interface to get it running. As Chris noted, it needs internal API to
be used but for now I can live with that.
Thanks again for the help!
Best regards,
Ovidio
