Steven,

Can you open a bug against Equinox->Framework
so we can continue the discussion and track the possible solution?  Please
attach your patch there.  Thanks.

Subject	[equinox-dev] EclipseStarter.searchFor() - expected JAR naming        scheme

At present, EclipseStarter.searchFor() looks for JAR
files given some
target name, which can be

 o the entire file name
 o the file's base name minus the ".jar" extension
 o the prefix of a base name, followed by an underscore that
   introduces a version tuple

The third one is clever and convenient, but I found that it conflicts
with Maven's preferred JAR naming scheme. Maven separates the
artifactId from the version tuple by a dash or hyphen.

With the small change attached, we could use Maven-generated artifacts
named by their artifactId and have them properly discovered.
