Target Platform not working when restart eclipse [message #332103]

Hello

I've a problem with using a file .target or configurating a target
platform with additionnal locations

If I create a .target file with my additionnal locations and I click "Set
as Target Platform", it works
If go to Windows -> Preferences -> Plug-in Developpement -> Target
Definition : if I add manually my additionnal locations and I click apply,
it works

But if I go to Target Platform screen and select the .target file as my
target platform. My workspace doesn't compile :( all is red...

If it was compiling (by configuration manually the Target Platform, not
using a .target) and If I restart my eclipse. When eclipse is started, my
workspace doesn't compile. I have to reconfigure my target platform.

If it was compiling (by clicking "Set as Target Platform" on my .target
file) and if I restart my eclipse. When eclipse is started, my workspace
compile...

I don't understand what's wrong....?

Could someone help me ?

Jean-Francois,

I'm also using a TargetPlatform with a TargetPlatformFile with some
additional locations.

This file is applied from Preferences-Plug-In Development - TargetPlatform

the checkbox on top of window is checked

all works well

but you to know, that there can be problems if you have same bundles at
different locations - then eclipse doesnt remember the selected plug-ins
correct.

I'm always using many different locations, per ex.:
* RCP
* Riena
* EasyBeans
* Equinox
* ...
but there's no bundle twice over all locations, so in my TargetPlatform
file I always use ALL bundles from each location.

perhaps you can tell more about your specific situation ?

ciao

Hi ekke,

Thanks for your response.

I check my configuration and I've also check the checkbox button in
preferences screen...
I have no problems of possibles duplicates bundles. All bundles added with
additionnal Locations are new bundles.

Here is my example

I'm working with an eclipse RCP 3.4 and I have one folder called
additionnalBundle witch is containing specifics bundles (springs bundle).

C:\tools\ide\eclipse34 => my basic targetPlatform
C:\tools\ide\additionnalBundle => the springs bundles

My target file is in separate project

C:\tools\projects\TargetProject => name of project where .target is.

That is strange is that the my problem only appear in the cases I speak in
my original post.

My problem is just a compilation problem.

It doesn't compile when :

* I create a .target and I go to target platform preference screen and I
choose the .target as new target and I click "load target"
* I go to Target platform preference screen and i configure a target
platform and I "Apply" and I restart eclipse

It compile when :

* I create a .target and I select "Set as Target Platform"
* I go to Target platform preference screen and i configure a target
platform and click on "Apply"

best regards

Hi Jeff,

It's likely the exact same problem described in bug #242002 [1]

Cheers,
Benjamin
