Eclipse Plugin Development install dependencies if not installed yet - eclipse

Hey guys,
I'm developing a plugin for eclipse and I need some dependencies, e.g. org.eclipse.graphiti.
When I export my plugin and when I build my update site, everthing works fine, until i try to install my plugin, because then the install wizard says I don't have graphiti installed. How can I tell my wizard to ask if you want to install the needed plugin automatically?
Thanks for any help and ideas.

During install select the 'Contact all available update sites' checkbox in the lower part of the feature selection dialog. This allows searching all existing update sites. This might help, or if not, then add the Graphiti update site your feature.xml.

CodePro Analytix: Where to find the plugin

I need to set up CodePro Analytix plugin . But the link http://dl.google.com/eclipse/inst/codepro/latest/3.6 is not opening.
Please help me out. is there any other way to install CodePro Analytix or is there any other tools which does same functionality.
That is an Eclipse update site, you can't open it in a web browser.
Instead you install it from Eclipse by opening 'Help > Install New Software...'. In the 'Work with:' field enter the update site URL for example https://dl.google.com/eclipse/inst/codepro/latest/3.7 which still works with Eclipse Oxygen.
Eclipse will then show you what can be installed from the update site.
Note: This code does not appear to have been updated for a while.
You can install it from Eclipse Marketplace: https://marketplace.eclipse.org/content/codepro-analytix
But be careful, it's outdated and doesn't work with Juno or higher versions of Eclipse.

Can't install Eclipse plugin

I'm trying to install an Eclipse plugin for Mylyn/Fogbugz, and I get the following error when I try either EclipseBugz or Foglyn:
Cannot find a solution satisfying the following requirements Match[requiredCapability: org.eclipse.equinox.p2.iu/org.eclipse.swt
I'm using Eclipse 3.4.1
what other update sites do you have enabled in your Eclipse installation?
I had similar problem when upgrading from older Mylyn, and found out that it helps to disable other updates sites. When installing new plugins, or even updating old ones, Eclipse has a tendency to contact all enabled update sites. I don't know what exactly it is trying to do, but it helped me to disable all sites except one I wanted to use.
Btw, Eclipse 3.5M6 has option to use only selected update site -- it is great help when updating/installing plugins. I cannot wait to see Eclipse 3.5 final released, just for this feature.
Eclipse plungins require Equinox UI for dependency.Please read Equinox installer .I hope can help you. : )
