Hi,
I am trying to package a plugin as an rcp application. As a part of that
process I have created a product configuration file where I specify
the splash-screen and the icons (of various sizes).
When I test the product (by clicking the Launch eclipse app) it works
fine.But when I export the product and launch it as an application I am
facing the following two problems.
1. The icons and splashscreen are missing.
> I checked the config.ini its alright but splash.bmp and other icon
files are missing in the plugins/myplugin folder (though they are
present in my workspace when I exported the product).
2.unnecessary plugins are included in the exported application. How do I
just select just the dependent plugins of myplugin alone. I have seen
plug-in dependencies view but I am unable to "copy" them to the
configuration file.
Thanks in advance,
Prasad

I had not taken into account the dependent plugins of plugins I
included. Thanks for your comments.
