Build fails: Unable to find feature [message #38640]

I'm trying to build an RCP app with dependencies to e.g. org.eclipse.help.ui

Build fails when using RCP runtime + delta pack as target environment
(which appears obvious).

Alternatively, I've tried to use a separate Eclipse SDK as target
environment, but build gets much further still fails, but with strange
errors:

[java] customAssembly:

Any ideas what this might be?

I've done some more investigation with a simple PDE build using the
examples from
http://rcpquickstart.com/2007/06/06/getting-started-with-pde -build/

Building against the RCP runtime works fine. This won't work for me
though as runtime doesn't contain all required features like e.g. Common
Navigator etc.

Building against Eclipse SDK (even if separate install) continues to
fail with java.io.EOFException

So I believe it comes down to the question of how to do a PDE build with
required features not part of RCP runtime?

All insight greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
Andi

Hi Andreas,

I believe I had the same error message. In my case the Eclipse Deltapack
was missing. For a small tutorial which related to the Eclipse PDE Build
you can check here:

Best regards, Lars

Mhm- I do have the delta pack installed, even re-downloaded to make
sure. Selected target SDK containing delta pack as runtime. Still same
problem:

Even straight-forward plugins seem to fail:

Bundle
org.eclipse.core.filesystem.win32.x86:
Host plug-in
org.eclipse.core.filesystem_[1.1.0,2.0.0) has not been found.
Bundle
org.eclipse.core.net.win32.x86:
Host plug-in
org.eclipse.core.net_1.1.0 has not been found.
Bundle
org.eclipse.core.resources.win32.x86:
Host plug-in
org.eclipse.core.resources_[3.4.0,3.5.0) has not been found.
Bundle

Bundle org.eclipse.update.core.win32:
[eclipse.generateFeature] Host plug-in
org.eclipse.update.core_[3.0.0,4.0.0) has not been found.

Any idea what might be wrong with the target runtime definition (RCP
binary + Delta pack)?

Thanks,
Andi

Is the delta pack and rcp binary co-located, ie., c:/dir/plugins ?

I've setup c:\eclipse for my SDK and created c:\eclipse\runtime as base
folder for the rcp binary and delta pack. Thus the combined plugin of
rcp binary and delta pack end up in c:\eclipse\runtime\eclipse\plugins.

I've also configured build properties to match the runtime folder:

base=c:/eclipse/runtime
baseLocation=${base}/eclipse

Makes sense?

I've solved this issue by setting up the target runtime environment
again. Runtime needs to consist of

Eclipse Platform SDK + RCP Delta Pack

The previous Eclipse SDK + RCP Delta Pack or RCP Runtime + RCP Delta
Pack were both not sufficient.

Hope this helps,
Andi
