Export Product into workspace location [message #554614]

I'd like to export the RCP product into a folder within my workspace.
For the Directory, I entered
${workspace_loc}\tst.client
But the following error is shown.
Any suggestions to avoid a hardcoded path which may not work across multiple developers??

C:\Users\ally\workspace.tst23Aug10\.metadata\.plugins\org.ec lipse.pde.core\temp\org.eclipse.pde.container.feature\assemb le.org.eclipse.pde.container.feature.win32.win32.x86.xml:87:

Directory C:\helios23Aug10\eclipse\C:\Users\ally\workspace.tst23Aug10\ tst.client creation was not successful for an unknown reason

Directory C:\helios23Aug10\eclipse\C:\Users\ally\workspace.tst23Aug10\ tst.client creation was not successful for an unknown reason

1 things:

1) In this email, there's a space between "workspace.tst23Aug10\
tst.client" Is that intentional?

2) specify your path like: ${workspace_loc}/tst.client

Thank you for the reply.
re: 1) The spaces and line breaks were my formatting.
re: 2) I tried the other slash '/' instead of my original '\' and ended up at the end with the same error.

It seems the generator of the ANT (?) file does not realize that
it should not prefix the target directory with the Eclipse.exe working directory path (C:\eclipse - helios NJ\eclipse\) when the value entered is ${workspace_loc}. The result is (with line breaks added)

C:\eclipse - helios NJ\eclipse\
c:\users\bob\workspace.tst23Aug10\tst.client

Error messages follow.

c:\users\bob\workspace.tst23Aug10\.metadata\.plugins\
org.eclipse.pde.core\temp\org.eclipse.pde.container.feature\ assemble.org.eclipse.pde.container.feature.win32.win32.x86.x ml:87:

Directory C:\eclipse - helios NJ\eclipse\c:\users\bob\
workspace.tst23Aug10\tst.client creation was not successful for an unknown reason

Directory C:\eclipse - helios NJ\eclipse\c:\users\bob\
