Does anybody know how can I can get a handle to a project's classloader? My
plugin needs access to the project's classloader and I am not able to find a
way to get a handle to it.
Thanks in advance for your reply.

Let's say that I have a project foo of type 'Web project' in my workspace.
Now, it has dependencies defined on other projects and so on. So, at runtime
when this web project is deployed, it will have a classloader of it's own
which will define what all this web project can access. My plugin needs the
design time equivalent of this classloader to find classes/resources that
this web project can access. So, my question is how do I get a handle to a
project's classloader/classpath. There is a way of doing this for java
projects through IJavaProject.getResolvedClasspath(), but what about other
types of projects.
