RCP开发运行时Plug-in TD was unable to load class td.app.Application

本来好好可以运行的程序，经过一些配置之后，就出现了这个异常，整个程序都不能启动。上网找了好久，才找到解决方法

解决：在Plug-in editor里面的Runtime Tab的class path添加“."一项，并让它排到最顶。

疑问：其实这个classpath的设置，我之前也是有留意的，原本应该都是空的。但不知道为什么出现了这个错误之后，就得加上这个”.“才可以正常运行。

注意：还有另外一个情况，也回出现这个错误。就是td.app.Application下真的没有Application这个class，即plugin.xml和src里面的路径不一致的，造成这个的原因有可能是eclipse在重构的过程中产生错误，或者是人为错误所导致。
