Re: [eclipse-dev] The applications and products extension points have moved

>Does this also imply that I can no longer launch from 3.2?
Fortunately, no.  Newly created launch configurations should work just
fine.
I was just referring to existing launch configurations.  These
configurations need their list of plug-ins updated (if you are using the
last option on the Plug-ins tab) before you launch.

Now, at the risk of spoiling an upcoming event, the runtime team has been
working on a new launcher story, which will be released after M4.
At that time, it will be impossible to use a < 3.3 M4 instance  to launch a
> 3.3M4 target.

See https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=165818 for the new
launcher ramifications on PDE

Does this also imply that I can no longer launch from 3.2?

Please note that, due to this change, all existing Eclipse
Application/Plug-in JUnit launch configurations, that have a hand-crafted
list of plug-ins to launch with, will stop working.

As of next Tuesday's I-build, PDE will migrate all affected launch
configurations under-the-covers to account for the app bundle, so that
existing launch configurations can continue to work without any action on
your part.

If you are anxious to try out the new application model before next week's
I-build, you need to modify your launch configurations manually in order to
be able to launch.

Thanks,
The PDE Team.

Sorry for the late notice.  Yesterday I released changes into the
org.eclipse.core.runtime bundle to implement the new application model.
See bug https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=154084.

The new application model is implemented in a new bundle
org.eclipse.equinox.app.  As a result the following extension points have
moved from the org.eclipse.core.runtime bundle to the
org.eclipse.equinox.app bundle.

Extension Points:
org.eclipse.core.runtime.applications
org.eclipse.core.runtime.products

To run with the latest code from HEAD you must check out the new
org.eclipse.equinox.app project from HEAD.
