Re: [pde-build-dev] Build a product with pde-build

[Jeff McAffer <Jeff_McAffer@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Try having feature 2 *include* feature
1 and then build just feature 2 (it will build feature 1 automatically).

Note that the path to the .product file
should likely be absolute (i.e., add a leading /)

Hi Jeff

I'm building 2 features, which are combined in 1 product.

Feature 1: myRCPFeature contains org.eclipse.jface.text, 
org.eclipse.text, org.eclipse.ui.forms and org.eclipse.rcp as included
feature

Feature 2: myOwnFeature contains 20 own plugins.

Should I use only one feature for all?

The path to my product is: ch.netcetera.pblow/pblow.product and it is 
entered like this in the properties file.

Regards and thanks for your help,
Martin
