动态加载package-eclipse

Question

I am developing a plugin in eclipse, which is a metrics view that will show a list of syntactic metrics(of Xtext files). the plugin is written in java, as a plugin project in eclipse.

How can I load dynamically from the Activator (the file that created in eclipse plugin project) all classes from a certain package,directly to the metric table I prepare.

I searched about it and didn't find any guides or useful information to help me with this issue.

Thanks!

Basically eclipse plugins are osgi bundles. Since each osgi bundle (ie eclipse plugin) has a own classloader try using that class loader to resolve related resources.

See How to get classloader for a bundle in equinox?
