how to install my RCP app as a bundle in equinox? [message #512328]

Hi,

I developed an rcp application under eclipse and it works fine. I can export it as a product using myapp.product and run it as well.

Now I'd like to deploy and run this rcp app by means of a standalone osgi container. I used my plugin.xml to exporte the rcp project by means of eclipse export feature ("Deployable plugins and fragments"). Then I installed that built plugin(a directory) into equinox and tried to start the bundle. It required org.eclipse.core.runtime so I installed it as well, I followed that path until all required bundles were installed (e.g. org.eclipse.equinox.common, org.eclipse.core.jobs, org.eclipse.jface.databinding and a few others).

So I got to the point were I could start my bundle. However I get "No application id has been found" error. Could you help with that? I guess I need more stuff deployed into container but what's the procedure? Can an RCP app be started that way?

Thanks,
Maciej

Yes it should be possible.

Maybe you have a look here (there's explanation how to start the osgi container and your bundles) :
http://www.eclipse.org/equinox/documents/quickstart.php

If you want to run a product you need to pass the product ID . You'll find the documentation of the launcher and it's runtime options in the Eclipse help - I added the link for Galileo (as far as I know you have to pass the option eclipse.product either by the command line or put it into a config.ini) :
