Esteemed Eclipse People,
I have a new feature project that includes a plugin which was manually
installed into the ide by dropping it into the plugins directory. This
plugin was not installed as part of another feature.
When I attempt to export the new feature all seems to go fine. No errors
reported or in the logs. But when I check the exported plugins dir only
the plugin base dir and plugin.xml have been exported. The lib and its
jars are nowhere to be seen. I have checked and, yes, the lib jars are all
there in the eclipse/plugins/myplugin/lib dir.
Can any one please tell me what may be the problem here? I need some sleep
:(
Thanks,
Miles

If you just export myplugin (Deployable plug-ins and fragments), does it
copy out the myplugin/lib dir? i.e. is it listed in your
build.properties file?

Whether or not your myplugin is treated as a binary plug-in is
determined by whether or not it has a build.properties file.
If it does not have this file, then the whole plug-in should have been
copied. If it does have a build.properties, then, as Paul mentioned,
you need to specify in there which files are to be included in the plug-in.
