Mauro,

That is not the only error produced when generating (exporting) an application. I tested 3.2 RC1a and 3.2RC2 with the same result. The list is long. I posted it on May 1 and still have no answer. Looks like you and me are the only ones that tried 3.2RC2! or (beg your pardon) you and me are the only donkeys that don't know how to do it!!

Hope we have luck and somebody gives us an answer.

Luck,
AG

Check if your Target platform location (in Preferences) is correctly set, as
I had similar problem and notices that target is incorrect. After fixing
(set it to eclipse dir) it worked correctly.

Have you guys tried packaging the source using 3.2rc1/rc2 by running the
PDE build from the command prompt?
I am running into simillar issues like feature not found.
Please let me know if you are successful in packagin the source code.

Thank you
Daniel

The point here is that you should not use the sdka as target for RCP. Thtas why there is a separate RCP download. And yes, if you use the sdk as target you can run your app from within Eclipse. But if you build your app (Export it) the whole bunch of errors appear again!!

I would really appreciate very much a word from Eclipse Personal expleining us if there is some kind of problem or simply we don't know how to work 3.2RCP.

I am using 3.2RC2 and I was able to export my RCP app without a problem.
I am running on windows. Are you able to run the app withing the
eclipse framework?

I'm using Windows XP professional - servicepack 2

As said before, the application runs within eclipse framework only if I use the framework as a target, witch I shouldn't.

If I build the application (export it) it generates a whole bunch of errors of the type of missing jars.

Hi
I'm running in windows and I set up eclipse rcp 3.2 rc2 s target plataform
too.
Those are the steps that I used to do It :
I'm using eclipse 3.2 rc2 and eclipse rcp 3.2.rc2 as target
Fir you nedd to add in target this plugins :
org.apache.lucene

org.eclipse.help.appserver

org.eclipse.help.base

org.eclipse.help.ui

org.eclipse.help.webapp

org.eclipse.tomcat

org.eclipse.ui.forms

org.eclipse.update.core

org.eclipse.update.scheduler

org.eclipse.update.ui

Second in http://www.eclipsercp.org/book/cd.php there is an update site or
an
stand alone example that you ned to use. It install an plugin that unistall
and
install an example based in chapter of book.
Than install the chaper 14 that adds update manager and changes the rcp to
be
based in features insteand of plugins.
Then try to export the eclipse product based on
/org.eclipsercp.hyperbola/hyperbola.product
I've noticed that I can export the plugin but not the product or the
featureAnd Yes I can do It in some case for example I downloaded the brose
rcp example changed the product to be based in features insteand of products
and it was exported with no problemI've submited as a bug
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=139947, since It's working in
eclipse 3.1.2If some of you has some idea le me know and if some kind of
mistake that I 'm making let me know to close this bug

Mauro,

In that aspect you are right. Those steps are well explained in McAffer - Lemieux book but are for help and other stuff.

My complaint is than quite a few other plugins are missing from RCP 3.2 RC2 the were in RCP 3.1.2!!. For example the console, some jface text, etc.

I tested RC1A and RC2 by importing an application that has about 160 classes and that runs perfectly in RCP 3.1.2.

So I presume that there is a huge problem with 3.2 RC2 or its installation is not as straightforward as version 3.1.2.

And that is exactly what I would like to know.

Thanks for your reply and I will continue bothering in this thread until I solve the problem. Ha, Ha, Ha!

IIRC, there was another thread on this recently. It really depends on
how you export and run your RCP app.

If you are exporting from 3.1.2 and then just move into 3.2, you have to
make sure that your product export includes all of the new lower level
plugins ... org.eclipse.core functionality was spread out, and your list
of plugins for your RCP app must increase accordingly. ex: go to your
launch config, deselect all, select your main RCP plugin(s), and add
required plugins. Then compare that list with what your product is
trying to export.

Another problem I think that was mentioned in a thread recently was that
an export that included a "New plugin from JAR archives" would fail, but
the corresponding ant-based export script would work.

Later,
PW

Hi Paul,
Thanks a lot mentioning other threads that ware very usefull to find my
mistake.
Based in you references I genereted the ant build and sow that since I had
the sources from org.eclipse.ui in my workspace, instand using the jar from
target when the hiperbola project was loaded it used the sources cheked out
in my workspace from cvs to test fragments in my locale pt-BR. When I
generated the ant bild using pde tools it easy too see that the classpath to
ui is from a project and not from a plugin. Even when you chage in louncher
to use the plugins from target, you need to close the project (I dont know
if it was this way before) when you delete and add ui dependencies again ,
couse if not when you try to in list apears the project (it is decoretade
with a gold circle).
Thanks again Paul

Ry Paul,
Thanks a lot about you coments
