My situation is this:
I have made a very important plugin (X), which uses a very unimportant
(statistics) plugin (Y).
I want the X-plugin to work, even if Y-plugin is not present.
In X-plugin I have defined an optional dependency to Y-plugin.
The X-plugin is calling the Y-plugin in a seperate thread.
This actually works - but not very nice.
If the Y-plugin is not available I get this error from org.eclipse.ui:
Failed to execute runnable (java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Y-plugin)
and the thread is terminated.
So... my question is:
How can I from X-plugin, check if Y-plugin is available, so that I handle
it and omit trying to instantiate Y-plugin?

Hi,
I'd use Platform.getBundle("y") which will return null if the bundle
with this name is not found.
