non-java help plugin does not build in PDE build [message #28290] Wed, 22 October 2008 08:44 Go to next message

I have a feature which contains several plugins including java plugins
and a help plugin.

The help plugin does not have the Java nature and therefore has no
source or source directory.

The feature works fine in the IDE and exports to an update site project
as you would expect.

When building with PDE build (headless) however I get the error



/export/eclipse/build/trunk/plugins/org.immutify.keytool.hel p/build.xml:111:
srcdir
" /export/eclipse/build/trunk/plugins/org.immutify.keytool.hel p/src " does
not exist!




If I create an empty source directory the build works, but this looks
like a bug, shouldn't PDE build recognize that there is no java nature
in the project?

I suppose I could also make the help a separate feature, but that's also
a bit nasty.

Am I missing something here or is this a bug? Just wanted to check
before raising a bugzilla ticket.

Thanks,
Bruce.

Please disregard.

Problem was caused by a spurious src entry in build.properties.
