Re: [udig-devel] Custom RCP Application - doc bugs end (expected) error

[Jody Garnett <jody.garnett@xxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks for the testing (and detailed feedback).

Please keep communication on udig-devel (as I am doing this as a volunteer; it is helpful to keep communication in the open so others can help).

I was able to go through and:

- Update the SDK Quickstart to Eclipse 3.7.2

- Catch up with you on the Custom App tutorial (and fix the issues you mentioned).

I am also stuck on the 'expected error' - problem was I was hoping using Eclipse 3.7.2 would fix it :-)

I do actually have a slightly different error message then you.

C:\java\workspace\.metadata\.plugins\org.eclipse.pde.core\temp\org.eclipse.pde.container.feature\package.org.eclipse.pde.container.feature.win32.win32.x86.xml:100: The following error occurred while executing this line:

C:\java\workspace\.metadata\.plugins\org.eclipse.pde.core\temp\org.eclipse.pde.container.feature\package.org.eclipse.pde.container.feature.win32.win32.x86.xml:988: C:\java\workspace\.metadata\.plugins\org.eclipse.pde.core\temp\assemblyLocation\tmp\custom\plugins\org.apache.ant_1.8.2.v20120109-1030 does not exist.

The following error occurred while executing this line:

C:\java\workspace\.metadata\.plugins\org.eclipse.pde.core\temp\org.eclipse.pde.container.feature\package.org.eclipse.pde.container.feature.win32.win32.x86.xml:988: C:\java\workspace\.metadata\.plugins\org.eclipse.pde.core\temp\assemblyLocation\tmp\custom\plugins\org.apache.ant_1.8.2.v20120109-1030 does not exist.

Only trouble is … why would we need ant!

Here are the steps I used to find out who is at fault.

1. Went to custom.product and reviewed the features we want to have available at runtime

2. First up is the feature  org.eclipse.rcp --> double clicking opens the details - and I can see that the list of plugins does not include ant

3. Next is the feature net.refractions.udig_base-feature -> and this one includes ant!

Why? Well I am not sure - that is the mystery for the next email. I am sure it is a mistake :-)

Hi Jody.

The usual "field" report...

..I am sending you a couple of screen captures that may turn handy when updating the .PDF.

- Chapter 9, par 4: required features have different name than those pointed in current PDF... ...well.. actually the same name but all with suffix "-feature". More, "net.refractions.udig_language" is not available at all (I suppose this is related to the SDK)

- Chapter 9, par 7: suggested New Feature name in INVALID (as contains an hyphen): see picture

The expected error.

In the picture the output of the error issued while bundling the Application (launching from whithin Eclipse does work!)
