Hello,
First, apologies as this question has been asked before more than one time, and it seems that people seem to get this working, but for some reason or the other I don't
I just want my RCP application to support the dropins folder so that any plugin the user drops in there is detected by the rcp application.
I tried the suggestions in the following links, namely:
- add all the org.eclipse.equinox.p2.* to the dependencies
- add org.eclipse.equinox.p2.reconciler.dropins to the configuration tab with AutoStart=true (along with org.eclipse.core.runtime, org.eclipse.equinox.common and org.eclipse.equinox.simpleconfigurator)
-- add p2.gathering=true to the build.properties

http://wiki.eclipse.org/Equinox/p2/Adding_Self-Update_to_an_ RCP_Application
http://aniefer.blogspot.com/2009/03/building-p2-rcp-products -in-eclipse.html
and what I saw is that something feels my plugins, because when I remove them and rerun I get a message in the console that eclipse can't find those plugins, but the contributions the plugins make to the ui are never visible.
I double checked that when I run the product with those plugins in the run configuration (from eclipse) the contribution is visible. but I don't know why it doesn't appear in the exported product with the dropins.
Please help.
Best Regards,
Mohamed.
