RE: [pde-build-dev] How to include application launcherin thethebuildusi

["Sharma, Jaikumar" <jaikumar.sharma@xxxxxxxxx>]

Initially, I had a question regarding building RCP application from a
product configuration file as mentioned under the following link :
http://help.eclipse.org/help32/index.jsp?topic=/org.eclipse.pde.doc.user
/guide/tasks/pde_product_build.htm

Everything goes well, but archive I get as a result of the build process
does not contain the launcher (eclipse.exe), which Andrew had mentioned
to download the RCP Delta pack and try that.

Next to that, I had downloaded the RCP Delta Pack for Eclpse 3.2.2 since
I am using Eclipse 3.2.2 and installed the same into my existing eclipse
installation (as you adviced in your earlier post).

Result :

When I run the build it does not give any error nor any result, but If I
remove the RCP Delta Pack from eclipse installation build works but
build archive does not contain the launcher (eclipse.exe).

I am using Ant.

Thanks for your help!

Regards.

This sounds familiar, but I don't recall what the problem was for me.

I suspect that your buildConfiguration/build.properties file needs more
work.

Have you made sure that you configured all the fields as described in
the "Create the build configuration" section of
http://mojo.codehaus.org/pde-maven-plugin/examples/simple_product.html
?

If I had to guess I would say that your "configs" element is commented
out. _______________________________________________
