Re: [pde-dev] [Question] : How to extend PDE classpath provider

[Tom Schindl <tom.schindl@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I've had the same problem and filed:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=363733 though my usecase
is bit different in the end it does exactly what you want.

For 3.7.1 I implemented a feature patch [1,2,3] but I hope I can work
with the PDE people on getting this in for 3.8.

Tom
