To open the view, Ctrl+3 and type Plug-in Explorer
Initially the view is empty.
You can now either inspect one from existing PDE targets or load a *.t2 file.
To load existig PDE target platform, just select it from the view menu:
Content of a *.t2 file is simple and should consist of directories to scan for plugins & features, each on a new line.
Lines starting with # are ignored, other lines are considered as absolute paths to directories containing some plugins or features or both.
Lines starting with - are special: they allow exclude bundles from the target.
Such lines should contain bundle id and optionally a version separated by space, like
-org.apache.ant 1.10.5.v20180808-0324
This helps to analyze "what would happen if I remove the bundle from the target platform?".
