How can I get access to the Extension object for the current plug-in?

Hello,


My apologies if this has been asked.


In the Java backend of my vCenter plug-in, I'd like to access information from the Extension object for the plugin (such as the client description). Is there a way I can get access to the Extension object for my plug-in from within the plug-in code? In a separate app I am able to create a ServiceInstance object, providing a username and password, and from that get an ExtensionManager, but I am hoping to do something that doesn't require that the plugin manage a username and password.


Thanks very much for your help!
