Launching a standalone Java application [message #45623]

I'm not sure I'm asking this in the right place; please correct me if
there's a better place.

The situation is like this: given a running Eclipse (call it
"PARENT"), I would like to launch a standalone Java application
("CHILD"), with a classpath containing (a subset of) Java code from
plugins in PARENT.

How do I know what to set the CHILD's classpath to? In PARENT, when
the plugin starts, I can do:

context.getBundle().getLocation()

and the result is something like:

reference:file:/home/jesperes/.../com.iar.ide.debugger.kerne l/

but since it is a String, I'm unsure how to proceed with it such that
it also works when packaging the plugins as a product, for example.

Thanks,
