I'm developing two versions of the same plugin at the same time: A1 and
A2. Also A1 depends on another plugin B1 and A2 depends on the same
plugin, but a latter version: B2.
When I have all four plugins open at the same time in Eclipse 3.2, it
seems that the classpath entries overlap and conflict. I have to close
A1 and B1 if I want to work on A2 and B2, or the other way around.
It there a solution to this problem? If not, could this be directly
supported in the future?
Thanks,
Jerome

Thanks Sunny, that's a good workaround. It is even used by Eclipse IDE
to deal with the two versions of JUnit (3.8 and 4.1).

Because I really need to quickly switch from one plugin version to the
other. I have other plugins that can use any available version, A1 or A2.
Idieally, I would like Eclipse to use the dependency constraints based
on min/max versions to use the best plugin. Unfortunately, this version
resolution seems to be only supported at runtime.
