[news.eclipse.platform.rcp] Re: Which native libraries for RCP applicati

[Jean Bovet <jean.bovet@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks Lars. The delta pack is really helpful.

Just out of curiosity, why is the 
org.eclipse.core.filesystem.linux.x86-1.2.0.v20080604-1400.jar not 
needed for an RCP runtime on Linux? Are the RCP applications not using 
certain native libraries that the Eclipse IDE does (but the IDE is an 
RCP app, right?)?

One more question: is there a way to automatically load a native library 
or shall I need to have different config.ini file for each platform to 
include the correct libraries?

Regards,

Jean
