[news.eclipse.platform.rcp] Re: Path problem

["Teichgraf" <teichgraf@xxxxxx>]

Your plugin location is relative. And you have to do every operation with 
the Bundle.
I am doing the following to get a relative URL:

URL cfgURL = 
Platform.getProduct().getDefiningBundle().getEntry("res/XXX.cfg");

or if you don't have branded your applictaion I think you have to use the 
following:

URL cfgURL = Platform.getBundle("ID of your Plugin 
here").getEntry("res/XXX.cfg");

I hope this helps.
