Hi guys,

I have 2 projects in my workspace. The first project is a plug-in with RCP behaviors (it includes a class implemented IApplication...) and it contains the product configuration file too.

The second project is a simple feature project, which includes the plug-in above.

Now, my problem:

When I set "The product configuration is based on plug-ins" in my product configuration file and start the Product
export wizard, then all goes well.
But if I set "The product configuration is based on features" in my product configuration file and start the Product export wizard, the deployed folder is only 300kB big and "plug-ins" folder doesn't contain any of 40 plug-ins, which my plug-in depends on.

Please help

Hello,

When using a feature-based product build, your features must contain everything your product depends on. It defines the distribution.
A good but difficult way of managing feature-based build is to have 1 feature that contains your plug-ins, with dependencies defined in the dedicated tab; and one feature containing the dependency of your feature (and also the org.eclipse.rcp feature).

The difficulty is to define the right list of dependencies in the dependency feature...
