Hi,
In my project, I need to use my existing *.target file and I found the clue from your old post that "You can use a Target Platform task. In that task, you can specify the name of the target definition file; just the file name without the
..target extension" but I think I am making some mistake. Please help me. I have added a screenshot below. Where to specify the location of the target file and how to make this target as default target.

P.S: "New Target" is the target name.

Thanks,
Avneesh

Your .target file (its project) must already be imported into the workspace. Then the Target Platform task can load and
process the target by name, "New Target" in your case.

Hi Again,

I have tried and it works now. I have to add the ecore for target platform task(which is pde) manually like below.

xmlns:pde="http://www.eclipse.org/oomph/setup/pde/1.0"
xmlns:setup.p2="http://www.eclipse.org/oomph/setup/p2/1.0"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.eclipse.org/oomph/setup/projects/1.0 models/Projects.ecore http://www.eclipse.org/oomph/setup/git/1.0 http://git.eclipse.org/c/oomph/org.eclipse.oomph.git/plain/setups/models/pde.ecore".

Why it can't get added automatically in the setup editor as soon as wee add the task?

I really don't know what steps you took that lead to a problem. The
PDE.ecore model has this annotation:

<eAnnotations source="http://www.eclipse.org/oomph/setup/Enablement">
<details key="variableName" value="setup.pde.p2"/>
<details key="repository" value="${oomph.update.url}"/>
<details key="installableUnits"
value="org.eclipse.oomph.setup.pde.feature.group"/>
</eAnnotations>

So normally when a task from that model is part of a project setup, the
Setup PDE feature will be installed automatically into that IDE.

And normally in an IDE where you are editing Setup models, a dynamic
version of the model is available. And to create a Target Platform
Task, the enabled actions in the editor let you install the Setup PDE
feature to be able to create the task.

So I don't know what setups I'd need to follow to reproduce a problem.
