Folks,
I'm sorry to bother you, but I've spent five days on this problem and
can't get it to work. The books I have relate to Eclipse 3.0, and it
seems this aspect of Eclipse was changed significantly in 3.1.2. The best
info I could find was the on-line rcp tutorial, which I tried to follow -
but no success.
I've created a plug-in that works beautifully. It is branded via the
plugin.xml file. I then created a feature, and then in the plugin project
I created a feature-based product, defining a new product named
pluginproduct. Synch and run the feature-based product gave the following
results.

Application id ^^^^
It could be that you can use application="application" within this
plugin, and it doesn't like the PgClient.application?
I've always used the product.configuration to create the product, not an
extension, so I've never seen it used this way.
Later,

The above error is trying to tell you that your plug-in "mschmit.pgclient"
could not be resolved because it requires the plug-ins
"org.eclipse.ui.intro" and "org.eclipse.help.base" that the system could
not find. For help to work you need to add a few more dependencies. Here
is the list from one of my help plug-ins:
org.eclipse.help,
org.apache.ant,
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,
org.eclipse.ui.intro
In my case I have a .product (I am not sure if that is what you are using)
file that defines my product by features (one feature for a common library
that I share between apps, one for a thrid party library I am using, one
for the application, one for the database used by the application and one
for the rcp plug-ins I use). I created a org.eclipse.rcp.more_feature
that includes the org.eclipse.rcp feature and the additional plug-ins I
need that are not part of the rcp SDK distribution.
Here is my suggestion. Get your self back to where you have a working
application and a feature that includes it. Create a new feature called
org.eclipse.rcp.more_feature and include the above plug-ins in it and on
the included features tab add org.eclipse.rcp. Now you should have a
feature that includes your plug-in and a feature that includes all the
eclipse plug-ins you need. Now create a new .product file (in case you
have not done this before File | New | Other... choose "Plug-in
Development/Product Configuration"). On the overview page you should be
able to create a new product using the "New..." button and select your
application plug-in, create a product ID and select the application from
the drop down. On the configuration tab add the two features needed -
your application's feature and the org.eclipse.rcp.more_feature you
created above. Then it should launch after performing a synchronize on
the overview tab.
I hope that helps,
Ian
