RCP Application based on Features [message #937937]

Hello everyone,

I have been searching for a good example on Features. I successfully managed to create a simple basic feature and update site for an eclipse.

But now I want to create an RCP Application based on features. I've developped the application based on plug-ins and it works just fine! Could build everything... tested even with Delta Packs.

The next step would be to pack some plug-ins into features and create an update site for them to decorate my RCP Application... but these features are a bit more complex then most examples... and so I don't know what to do. I'm having these error messages as:

!MESSAGE Bundle reference:file:/C:/Eclipse Workspaces/SmartSignature/smartapps.smartsignature.templates.ui/ was not resolved.
!SUBENTRY 2 smartapps.smartsignature.templates.ui 2 0 2012-10-09 13:19:56.608
!MESSAGE Missing required bundle org.eclipse.ui.ide_3.7.0.
!SUBENTRY 2 smartapps.smartsignature.templates.ui 2 0 2012-10-09 13:19:56.608
!MESSAGE Missing required bundle org.eclipse.wb.swt_1.0.0.
!SUBENTRY 2 smartapps.smartsignature.templates.ui 2 0 2012-10-09 13:19:56.608
!MESSAGE Missing required bundle org.eclipse.core.filesystem_1.3.100.
!SUBENTRY 2 smartapps.smartsignature.templates.ui 2 0 2012-10-09 13:19:56.608
!MESSAGE Missing required bundle org.eclipse.ui.editors_3.7.0.

which tells me that some plug-ins can't be found.. but when I add them to the feature it doesn't work either.. I have no idea where to put what in this structure... so I am looking for a good tutorial on this. I have followed some like the vogella tutorial and this one (ralfebert.de/blog/eclipsercp/p2_updates_tutorial_36/) but it didn't quite do the trick.

Are there any more examples available? Smile

Thank you

An example

My plug-in Management.UI has dependencies of org.eclipse.wb.swt and org.eclipse.ui.forms

but also org.eclipse.ui and org.eclipse.runtime... and these plug-ins are found.. but not the others.. why? how?

I get this message:

!MESSAGE Bundle reference:file:/C:/Eclipse Workspaces/SmartSignature/smartapps.smartsignature.management.ui/ was not resolved.
!SUBENTRY 2 smartapps.smartsignature.management.ui 2 0 2012-10-10 10:49:51.256

!MESSAGE Missing required bundle org.eclipse.wb.swt_0.0.0.

My Management Feature (Containing the ui part) looks like this

It seems like he doesn't find the ui.forms... but the wb.swt is found and still gives me the error...

It might be possible using the new feature of Eclipse Juno "Add required in feature based product" (see this link, it's the 4th thing on the page)

Thanks for your response! And aren't there any good tutorials of how to do it for 3.7 ? Because the application is really missing plug-ins...

I have found the solution

My features were ok, but my required plug-ins in the run configuration weren't. I had no clue that you could just reconfig your launch the same way as with a plug-in based product. right click product -> run configs -> add required plug-ins -> apply -> run did the trick!

Now I can start with the real p2 functionality..

This will not fix it, after the export your product will fail again. Better to fix the product configuration as described here: Eclipse Product Configuration and Deployment.
