Bundling JRE with RCP Plugin [message #462583]

All,

I did a search for bundling the jre with RCP plugin, but it seems that
this can only be done with a RCP feature. Is that true? Can a jre be
bundled with a plugin?

Is it just a matter of adding a jre/ directory to your RCP deployment
directory?

Any responses would be appreciated.

Thank you.

Hi,

as far as I know, it is possible to bundle a jre only with a product.
Using Eclipse 3.3M4 (may it also works for earlier Milestones) you can
check the option "bundle jre" when exporting the product.

Hope that helps,
Stefan

Hi Rob,

Yes, you can bundle a jre with a plugin-based RCP product (I do it).
Also, 3.3M4 has an option in the product export wizard to select a
particular jre.

If you want to do it "by hand", copy the jre into your product directory
at the same level as the plugins folder.

Hope this helps.
