This is not possible because in this folder user dependent information

The only information that can be "re" generated anytime is the content
of runtime and osgi folders, but not programmatically.
You can generate them by specifying -initialize on the command line.

Sorry, hit the send button too fast...
So here's the question:
When launching the eclipse platform the folder configuration is created
which holds information about the installed plugins and so on. But what if
you install a new plugin or a new version of an already installed plugin? Is
there a way to tell eclipse to rebuild its configuration folder despite of
deleting it manually?
Background: I have a plugin that introduces a new view in a new version,
which isn't found after the update before deleting the configuration folder.
TIA for your answers!

That means when I add the initialize argument on each start of the
application then the configuration is always consistent regarding the plugin
contents also when an update occurs?

A new plugin should be detected. What driver are you using?
You may want to touch the plugin directory, so its timestamp is current, and
will be picked up when you launch eclipse.
