| Custom config.ini [message #533458] |

I'm using Buckminster with Hudson as per this superb article:
http://www.ralfebert.de/blog/eclipsercp/rcp_builds/
I'd like to be able to add my own custom properties to the config.ini file
that is generated. I got this to work fine using Eclipse product export, but
Buckminster does not include it.
Does anyone have a solution? If not, is there a way for me to simply add my
own text properties file to the root of the exported product. I just want a
config file that my application can reference, but do not want it hidden
inside my plugin jar, since that would be difficult for an end-user to
tweak.

Thanks Johannes. The "use an existing config.ini file" is what I was trying,
but it seems like buckminster generates it's own anyway and ignores that
setting. Anyway, your information about adding root files is really what I
was after anyway and that worked out great with both Eclispe export and
running through Buckminster. Thanks!!!

Can you log an issue for that?
It seems reasonable that Buckminster should understand and honor a
setting that PDE has for "use existing config.ini" (I guess that means
it adds it to the set of root files).
