[RELENG / PDE] Question when building plug-ins with pde scripts [message #328802] Wed, 04 June 2008 04:52 Go to next message

Hi,
I am using a base builder to automate my build. Some of my plug-ins are
not located in folders that match their plug-in id due to long path issues
on Windows XP.

It seems PDE scripts can not handle this use-case, when building the
feature containing such plug-ins, an error message raises to warn plug-ins
are missing.

Does anyone have a workaround ? Is there a solution to tell PDE scripts
that such plug-in id is located in such folder ?

Stephane.

Stephane,
There is no requirement for your project names to match the plugin-ids.

PDE/Build will look for your plug-ins in the following locations:
- In your baseLocation : under plugins/, and under anything referenced
with links or platform.xml

And, for each path in the list: "pluginPath, workingDirectory" (where
pluginPath can be a list of paths separated with the platform path
separator (: or ;))
- if path/plugins exists: everything in that plugins directory
- if path/META-INF/MANIFEST.MF or path/plugin.xml exist, that that path
is a plugin
- if path is a directory, all subdirectories are taken.
