Window images of product are ignored in my E4 RCP application [message #895560]

Hello everybody!

I'm writing an E4 RCP application and have the problem that my window images are ignored. I have defined all images in myapplication.product > branding > Window Images. Eclipse has also defined automatically my images in plugin.xml > Extensions > myapplication (product) > windowImages (property).

But if I start the RCP application, my images won't be shown. What have I done wrong?

Thanks a lot in advance for your time!

Martin

you must check you build.properties file of the plugin myapplication where the images directory is present , make sure this directory is checked (in build property file Editor) or if the images directory is present in the build.properties file .

Thanks for replying. I have checked the build.properties and the directory is present.

Looks like it is a bug in the model parser. The icon should be represented by the iconURI under a Trimmed/Window but it is not being picked up. Currently the Juno workbench is not using the iconURI attribute to set the icon for the workbench window. Check to see if there is an existing bug in bugzilla, if not file a bug and we can take a look. That functionality should be supported.

I'm having the same problem with my RCP application.
I have tried setting the Window Images in the Branding tab of my .product file. The image previews display correcty. I have also verified that the icons are exported in my build.properties settings and that they are contained in the .jar file.

I have also tried manually setting the Icon URI of my Trimmed Window in the Application.e4xmi file, but that didn't seem to help either.

This should be fixed in the latest Eclipse 4.3. integration build. Please download it and test it. See Eclipse 4 Source Code for the details.
