Sadly, i have no idea how to fix this. I guess it is somethin wrong with dependencies, but i have no clue where i can put this right.

Hi,

maybe the Application.xmi is not a part of your build. You can check this in your build.properties file.

Best regards
Bastian

Hi Bastian,
i checked and i couldnt find any Application.xmi entry, but I also cannot find a way to add such an entry. I also tried to add the line:
bin.includes = Application.xmi
to build.properties, but that gave me an error when I tried to export. Can u say me how I can include the Application.xmi?

Hi Daniel,

your project seems to be feature based. I don't know how/if an export of a feature project works. Maybe someone else does know that. You could configure it to be plugin-based. Then the build.properties should look different.
You could also add the Application.xmi manually to the exported jar (with 7zip or something else), but this is a pretty dirty workaround Smile

Hopefully someone else is more experienced in it.

Best regards
Bastian

So is it a Legacy RCP (using the compat layer) or a pure e4 one?

I tried that, just changed from feature-based to plugin-based, it still works in eclipse but when i run the exported app, i get an error message "Java was started but returned exitcode=13".

It is a pure e4 RCP, i started to build it with the tutorial from vogella.com (the e4 one).

I should have added that I had problems with some jars I wanted to include in the project, I ended up by just copying the jars into a lib folder, adding them to buildpath and to plugin.xml -> runtime -> clathpath. Guess this could make some problems...

So there must be a bundle which holds the *Application.e4xmi* check the
build properties in this project!

And check that your bundles have their plugin.xml marked for inclusion too.

That was it. I was working on the build.properties in the feature package...
Found the one in the main package, added plugin.xml and application.e4xmi to the build and now it works.
Thank you all for your help!
