How can feature and plugin have same id? [message #210987]

Hi,

I noticed that the standard Eclipse features have the same id as their
respective main plugins, e.g. "org.eclipse.jdt".
If I try to do it the same way for my plugin then my workbench complains
that I can't have 2 ressources (feature project and plugin project) with
the same name what seams reasonable.
So what am I doing wrong?

Ciao, Michael.

The feature/plugin id doesn't have to match the project name. Some just
append -feature to the project name to make it obvious.

org.eclipse.platform-feature

for example.
