Hi, You need to write a touchpoint and add touchpoint instructions. Look at the native touchpoint and an instruction like "chmod" for inspiration (the chmod touchpoint instruction runs an external command). (It is perhaps possible to just add instructions to the native touchpoint btw).
Should not be too hard to implement if all you want is "fire and forget" but gets a bit tricky if you want p2 to be able to perform rollback on failure. Replacing "files in use" is also notoriously hard on windows, requiring restart(s) to actually make changes take effect. Running MSI as part of the p2 install can thus mean that a reboot is performed in the middle of the process. So, you need to figure out a way to safely complete p2 install and get all your MSIs to run (if you have more than one you may need several reboots).

Hello,
I am working in a team that develops a product which
is an IDE for C/C++ development on Electronic Payment Terminal. We are
developing plug-ins to work with Eclipse 3.5, CDT 6.0 and Mylin. We use pde
build to generate this product and I want to distribute it to my user community
using p2.
Globally it’s worked but I want to use p2
to install not only my product but also additional setup files which are MSI
windows File. Reading the p2 documentation it seems to be possible to perform MSI
file installation using p2 but I don’t know how? Do I need to use a
native p2 touchpoint (but which) or do I need to create my own touchpoint. To
sum up: I am looking for any information telling how installing non eclipse
feature (setup file, MSI Files, reguister keys, rmi files…) using p2.
If this email is not sent at the right place, please
do not hesitate to tell me to whom I must send it.
Best regards
Arnaud LUCIEN
