There are two problems with the org.eclipse.birt.sdk_2.1.0.N20060609-1710 feature. 1. The feature.xml for org.eclipse.birt.sdk_2.1.0.N20060609-1710 has this includes tag <includes id="org.apache.xerces" version="2.8.0.N20060609-1710"/> However, the feature id for org.apache.xerces_2.8.0.N20060609-1710 is "org.apache.xerces.feature". This is causing some eclipse update tools to fail and can be rectified by changing the includes tag to <includes id="org.apache.xerces.feature" version="2.8.0.N20060609-1710"/> 2. Feature.xml for this feature includes <includes id="org.apache.batik.pdf" version="1.6.0.N20060609-1710"/> and this version of the feature is not packaged with the birt sdk zip.
Another problem with birt.sdk : org.apache.derby.core 10.1.2.1 is packaged as an orphan plugin, i.e. it is not included as part of any feature. It is necessary for all plugins to be included with one parent feature to aid eclipse components in installation and maintenance.
org.apache.derby.core would be put under the root dir of update site, like other 3rd party features, so does org.apache.xerces.feature. They will show up at the same level of org.eclipse.birt.sdk. So user can check the checkbox of all 3rd party features and org.eclipse.birt.sdk when using update manager.
