InterpreterInstallTypes [message #999891]

The normal way of adding InterpreterInstallTypes is through the extension org.eclipse.dltk.launching.interpreterInstallTypes.
It seems that's the only way to add install types so that ScriptRuntime sees them.
ScriptRuntime stores them in
private static IInterpreterInstallType[] fgInterpreterTypes = null;

Is there a way to programatically add interpreter install types without using the interpreterInstallTypes extension, to do it during runtime?

Hi,

At the moment they are loaded only from the extension point.
The idea seems strange, what is the use case for adding interpreter
install type dynamically?

Regards,
Alex
