Creating RCP, no executable [message #1007464] Tue, 05 February 2013 20:22 Go to next message

Hi,

I followed this tutorial (http://kthoms.wordpress.com/2010/11/12/setting-up-a-rcp-product-for-a-dsl/) to create a rcp application for my xtext editor. Everything works so far - the plugin validation is correct and I could launch and run it as an eclipse application.

But when I make a Product export, there will be no exe generated. I've not so much knowledge about RCP, but normally there should be an executable?
Has anyone noticed the same behaviour? Google didn't give me the right hint

I'm using Eclipse Version: 4.2.1 and Xtext 2.3.1

Hi

usually (at least in my experience) when the executable is not generated
is because

- org.eclipse.rcp feature is not part of your product's features
- org.eclipse.equinox.executable is not part of your target platform

I'm working on an example of "building an RCP for an Xtext DSL", (using
Buckminster, NOT the PDE product export), but I still haven't finished
it and I still haven't had time to document it... I hope it's going to
be ready soon.

cheers
Lorenzo

Thx, an exe is now created and everything works fine except the image which I've provied via the labelprovider are not shown in the outlineview.
Maybe there ist something else missing, which is special for the images?
