Prevent archiving rcp application in headless build [message #603969]

Hi,

1) Is is possible to prevent the default headless build of PDE
(org.eclipse.pde.build_...\scripts\productBuild\productBuild .xml) of creating an archive
file at the end of the build process of my rcp application. Is there a property for that?
Or should I override the default assemble process?

What I would like to do instead, is to copy all files that the archive must contain to a
temporary directory. Our application already provide an installation software that will
grab these files and make the installer...

2) How could I customize part of my build process without changing the default PDE build
process?

Note that I'm using PDE to make an headless build of my RCP application as in the following:

java -jar c:\eclipse\plugins\org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_XXX.jar -application
org.eclipse.ant.core.antRunner -buildfile productBuild.xml -D... -D...

Thanks all,

Vincent

Hi Vincent , Danny
There is definetely a way for that i believe.
You can try overwriting ant calls in customTargets.xml , allElements.xml , productBuild.xml and such files
These files are present in the 'eclipse\plugins\org.eclipse.pde.build_3.6.0.v20100603\templates\headless-build' directory in eclipse
Hope that helps.
