[p2-dev] P2 dropins monitoring facility

[Dileepa Jayakody <dileepa@xxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

We are using equinox p2 as the provisioning system in our osgi based application platform. I have a requirement of monitoring the installation process of the bundles in the dropins folder. After reading some documentations I found out that dropins folder is 
scanned at the framework initialization and dropins bundles are installed from 
there. However, AFAIK it doesn't give a log of activities, errors in the dropins bundle installation process. The bundles with errors are simply ignored. 

I would like to write a component to monitor the dropins by logging the installation process. Can somebody please advice me on how to start working on this? A reference to some relevant guides/documentations would be highly useful and much appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
Dileepa
