Default Disabling Eclipse plugins upon startup programmatically - 05-22-2011, 10:30 PM

When application starts, we need to check if user is still authorized to certain modules of our application and if their license expires, we need to disable (or uninstall) those plugins, so that they don't show up when they start the application.

The idea is to make those plugins inactive based on some criteria. We need to do this very early so that any perspective or views from this plugin do not show up in Open Perspective or Show Views dialog.

Any idea on how to do this? Thanks,

- Raja.
