Hi all,

I am trying to create my first product.
Eclipse 3.8 adopts the look&feel from e4.
My created product works (in terms of funcnionality) but it does not look like Eclipse 3.8 with the e4 adopted design. Am I missing something? Has anyone tried it based on Eclipse 3.8 and had the same issue?

What do you with "Adopted e4 design"? Did you role your own presentation?

Hi,

no I mean that the design is different from Eclipse 3.7.

Probably I am doing something wrong... Can anyone point me to a good tutorial for creating your own product for the current Eclipse version?

regards
Wladimir

I still don't get what you want? Eclipse 4.2 comes with a new design
(you see this too in the Eclipse 4.2 SDK). Do you want the 3.7 design
back, then you'll have to switch to the "E3 Theme".

Hi Tom,

I am happy to go with the new design. I am using the Modeling Package and want to create my own product.

Reading few tutorials I saw that creating an own product is different in Eclipse 3.x and 4.x. However, I am not sure what the current version, that you can download from http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/, is it: 3.8 or 4.2? And what is a good tutorial to follow for the current version?

You get 4.2 when you download e.g. the modeling distro.

The process of creating a product is not a whole lot different if you
use a feature based product. If you use one based on plugins you need
some more extra bundles.

Well I think the RCP Package has to the advantage that e.g. the exsd,
.... are all shipped with whereas the modeling package probably don't has
them.

So if you are writing an RCP Application I'd suggest you use the RCP
Package.
