Hi Friends,

I wanted to convert the plugin project as an ordinary java project , is
there any possibility to convert it.

Actually we have used EMF for creating our model and we had some other
plugins.

Right now we are asked to work with out creating plugins and use the
ordinary java projects.

If any one of you know the solution plz post it to me ..

Regards,

Hussain

Hussain,

I don't think there is any tool support for removing the plugin nature
or other PDE dependencies from the .project file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<projectDescription>
<name>library</name>
<comment></comment>
<projects>
</projects>
<buildSpec>
<buildCommand>
<name>org.eclipse.jdt.core.javabuilder</name>
<arguments>
</arguments>
</buildCommand>
* <buildCommand>
<name>org.eclipse.pde.ManifestBuilder</name>
<arguments>
</arguments>
</buildCommand>
<buildCommand>
<name>org.eclipse.pde.SchemaBuilder</name>
<arguments>
</arguments>
</buildCommand>*
</buildSpec>
<natures>
<nature>org.eclipse.jdt.core.javanature</nature>
* <nature>org.eclipse.pde.PluginNature</nature>*
</natures>
</projectDescription>

I also don't understand why getting rid of the plugin support would be a
good thing. The jar generated from an EMF plugin will work perfectly
fine as a classpath entry for a standalone application so the PDE
support is just a convenience for managing dependencies between projects
in a simple way. For example, you'll notice that the generated
XyzExample.java in the generated *.tests project can be run simply as a
Java application...
