Always meet bundle missing problem while exporting RCP [message #504670]

Dear All,

I configured all the necessary plugins in a feature, then I added this feature to my product file.

This product works very well in debug mode(by clicking "Launch an Eclipse application in Debug mode" in the product editor). But when I'm trying to export it. I always meet the error of "Cannot complete the install because one or more required items could not be found."

I tried many times, and the missing plugins were different each time. I'm really confused about this. I read some articles about how to export an RCP application, and followed the guides. But just failed.

BTW, I can export this RCP based on Eclipse 3.4, after upgrading to Eclipse 3.5, and fixed some errors in feature.xml, I met this crazy problem.

Can anyone help me out? Any suggestions are welcome. Thanks so much.

Hi Lars,

Thanks so much for your kindly help.

Actually, when I exported the rcp, I checked on the option of "Generate metadata repository", if I did this, the exporting process failed, but if I check it off, I could export it successfully.

At the end, I had to check off this option to make sure I can export my RCP.

Do you happen to know what's the difference between the above two ways?

Anyway, I can export it now, thanks again.

Hi,

Good to hear that the export worked.

AFAIK if you check the option a p2 enabled directory will be created so
that you could use the update manager to install new versions of your
RCP application.

Best regards, Lars

Hi Lars,

I agreed with you so much! If check the option, there will be a p2 enabled directory in the exported directory, and the RCP can use the update manager function directly.

For now, if I want to use the update manager, I have to write some code to enable it. Anyway, I have done this already. Thanks!
