What I want to do is to create a customized eclipse product by installing a set of plugins to platform runtime binary. And distribute it with a new splash screen. Is it ethical? ]]>Isuru Udana2010-04-20T03:42:10-00:00Re: Customized eclipse product

I want to know it is ok to create a customized eclipse product(not a RCP application) with
platform runtime binary
+
set of my preferred plugins
+
few plugins I have developed
And I want to change the splash screen also. Is there any license or ethical problem?]]>Isuru Udana2010-04-20T08:00:14-00:00Re: Customized eclipse product

This is basically the same thing. The Eclipse SDK is an RCP application.

There is no problem, MyEclipse does that for example.

You can do this by testing the scenarios "install another plugin" or "check for eclipse updates".
[If you want to prevent a customer doing any additional install or update, please disable the install/update feature completely and document properly why and that you did this.]
Customers using several such vendor-specific "eclipse distributions" (for embedded development) wanted to add (install) our plugin. They came to us with an "unresolved dependencies" error, but we found out that in all cases the problem was not with our plugin, with an invalid platform.xml file. Eclipse has "package tools" to help you make your own distribution and keep track of the used plugins, so please use them. Thanks!
