[target] Adding a feature [message #60301] Fri, 08 May 2009 11:57 Go to next message
Eclipse UserFriend
I'm confused about what adding a Feature to a target means.

I added the org.eclipse.platform feature from ${eclipse_home}. But that
didn't get me any of the dependencies of the plug-ins included in that
feature. For example, org.eclipse.core.runtime was not included.

Is that how its supposed to work? Is there an easier way to include the
platform feature and all its dependencies?

Cheers
Ben

That is because the o.e.core.runtime is part of the Eclipse RCP feature (org.eclipse.rcp) and not
the platform feature.

You are already using the easiest way!! :)
