 * Helper class to get platform configuration data without having to
 * use BootLoader methods from the compatibility layer.
 * <p>
 * <b>Note:</b> This class/interface is part of an interim API that is still under development and expected to
 * change significantly before reaching stability. It is being made available at this early stage to solicit feedback
 * from pioneering adopters on the understanding that any code that uses this API will almost certainly be broken
 * (repeatedly) as the API evolves.
 * </p>
 * @since 3.0
 * @deprecated The org.eclipse.update component has been replaced by Equinox p2. This
 * provisional API was never promoted to stable API, and may be removed from a future release of the platform.
