No launcher in zip created by a command line headless build [message #794071] Wed, 08 February 2012 17:15 Go to next message

I have a Eclipse RCP application created on Indigo. I can successfully export the product and the zip is complete and the application launches successfully.

Our environment requires us to be able to run standalone, continuous builds. Via the many helpful articles on the web I have an ant build.xml and the build.properties created. When I execute the build, it completes successfully but the zip does not contain an exe. Looking at the log file from the build the only error I see is:

generate.p2.metadata:
[java] Unable to find: Installable Unit [id=org.eclipse.equinox.executable_root.win32.win32.x86 ]

My eclipse installation is c:\eclipse with the deltapack installed in c:\eclipse\deltapack. I saw several posts that said the deltapack should not be installed in the eclipse SDK, so I also tried installing it alongside (c:\eclipse and c:\deltapack). This change had no effect on the build.

I've attached my build.properties and build.xml. Please advise.

I have this exact problem myself, having just stepped up to Indigo. Did you find a solution?

Unfortunately no we did not solve this. Our company standard for builds is to use Maven and not ANT. So we used the org.eclipse.tycho package to build with Maven.
