In the interface IApplication the Javadoc states: An IApplication can be configured into the Platform's <code>org.eclipse.equinox.applications</code> extension-point. I think the correct phrase would be: An IApplication can be configured into the Platform's <code>org.eclipse.core.runtime.applications</code> extension-point.
Thanks for catching this rather embarrassing mistake. I think this dates way back when we split the application container out of core.runtime and thought we would need a new extension point. Luckily we were able to reuse the old one that was already defined. Javadoc has been fixed.
