[platform-update-dev] Available classes from install handlers

["Brad Jarvinen" <Brad.Jarvinen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Is org.eclipse.core.runtime.* packages available from an Install Handler
in Eclipse 3.x?

It seems that it is not available any longer - I had an install handler
in Eclipse 2.x that accessed
org.eclipse.core.runtime.adaptor.LocationManager successfully but now in
3.0.1 I get a NoClassDefFoundError.

I saw a previous email stating that org.eclipse.update.core and
.org.eclipse.ui are the only class packages available and I want to
confirm that.

I'm trying to get access to the Eclipse root directory (by either
org.eclipse.core.boot.BootLoader.getInstallURL() or
LocationManager.getInstallLocation().getURL()) since my custom install
handler code needs to know the root Eclipse install directory currently.


Thanks,
Brad
