Hello,
I'm developing several RCP applications and would like to store plugins, common to all applications, in an external folder, not in the MyApp/plugins folder. I'm trying to do this using the links directory in the following way:
I've created the following directory structure:
MyApp1
----plugins
----links
--------share.link
MyApp2
----plugins
----links
--------share.link
share
----eclipse
--------plugins
The files share.link have the following content: path=<absolute path to the share directory>
Put common plugins to the share/plugin directory.
Unfortunately, when I start my applications, the plugins from share/plugins are not loaded.
What am I doing wrong? Which eclipse plugin(s) handles the links folder and loads plugins, referenced by the .link files?
Thanks in advance.
