Exporting a features dependencies? [message #636903]

Hello,

When building a RCP application using a feature based product configuration you have to care about the feature dependencies yourself. Most likely you have to put all the dependent plugins into a 'runtime' feature and care about keeping it up to date yourself. This really is a time consuming task and generates trouble most of the time.
My question is, is it possible to export a feature together with all of its dependencies? The dependencies are written into the feature.xml anyway, so it should be possible, shouldn't it? Anybody knows a good way?

Thanks!
