[news.eclipse.platform] Re: PropertyTester not firing

[Paul Webster <pwebster@xxxxxxxxxx>]

PropertyTesters return NOT_LOADED (which equates to TRUE) until their 
plugin is loaded.  Evaluation a property tester will not cause it to 
load.  In RCP apps you can use forcePluginActivation="true" in your 
tests to force it to load.

Starting the first, unrelated plugin must load a class from the common 
plugin (which means the next evaluation to the property tester will 
return TRUE/FALSE since it is now loaded)
