WHEN i distribute a RCP product, end users must install JRE. I want to
know whether there is a way to embedded a JRE within a product
configuration? If so, it it very convenient for the end users.

Hi,

I don?t know if there is a way to embed it in the product configuration
directly, but you could distribute a JRE with your RCP e.g. in the same
directory and then give the RCP the relative path to this JRE at startup via
the eclipse.ini

for example:

-vm
..\jre1.5.0_06\bin\javaw.exe

you can place it in a directory named "jre" under your RCP's main
directory. This should work without any further configuration.

You can also take a look at the description of the -vm command line
argument ( Help -> Workbench User Guide -> Tasks -> Running Eclipse )

greetings,
Hans

Well, this helps me too. Now I don?t have to modify eclipse.ini.

Thanks a lot!

If you base your product on features instead of plug-ins, you can
include things in the root of the product using properties in the
feature's build.properties file.
See the root properties here:
