Hi,

I have a problem when trying to export a Plugin as an Eclipse Product.

I followed the instructions in the eclipse wiki here

what I've done:
1. downloaded a clean eclipse installation
2. created a new plugin-project in an empty workspace
3. added an extension to org.eclipse.core.runtime.products
4. added a product to the extension with application org.eclipse.ui.ide.workbench
5. saved
6. added a product configuration (File->new->other->product configuration with "use an existing product: <myJustDefinedProduct>)
7. tried to launch an eclipse application from the product config
got following error:
java.lang.RuntimeException: Application "org.eclipse.ui.ide.workbench" could not be found in the registry. The applications available are: org.eclipse.equinox.app.error."
8. in Dependencies in the product configuration I checked "Include optional dependencies when computing required plug-ins"
9. clicked on "add required plug-ins"
10. again tried to launch an eclipse application from the product config
got following error:
java.lang.RuntimeException: Application "org.eclipse.ui.ide.workbench" could not be found in the registry. The applications available are: org.eclipse.equinox.app.error."

then I created a new product configuration using again an existing project but now took the product org.eclipse.platform.ide

11. tried to launch, same error as before
12. changed product to my defined product (which has the application org.eclipse.ui.ide.workbench)
12. tried to launch and got following error:
java.lang.RuntimeException: No application id has been found.

I don't know what I've done wrong... Sitting here for several hours and don't get NO plugin AT ALL to export...

Maybe the start levels are not set correctly. Do you have anything on the
configuration tab of the product editor? If you don't specify anything,
and at the bottom say "Generate a default config.ini file" then PDE should
take care of setting all the proper start levels for you.

If you do specify some start levels, then you will need to specify start
levels for all the bundles that need them. This page:
http://help.eclipse.org/helios/index.jsp?topic=/org.eclipse. pde.doc.user/tasks/pde_p2_configuringproducts.htm
shows the default start levels that PDE sets.
