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

Hello,
For you first problem, you simply have to tell the build to include the
files you need (typically your icons / image files).
You can do this by editing the build.properties file. You can then select
your resources to include form the "Build" tab (Binary build section) or
directly by editing the build.properties file through the corresponding tab.
Then reexport and your resources will be there.
For your 2nd point (dependencies), i am not quite sure what you need. You
have to select your plugin dependencies from the "Dependencies" tab of the
manifest editor of each of your plugin. Then if you have a product, you have
to select the whole set of plugins (or features) from the "Configuration"
tab of the product editor. This is what will be exported. It might be normal
to have "more" plugins exported than what you see in these views since your
dependent plugin may depend on other plugins which may be exported as well.
The button "Compute required plugins" is the one you need to automatically
detect which plugins should be exported with your application or product.
Hope this helps.
Christophe.

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