I have to build a product that contains one feature "featureA" (with application plugin) that requires another feature "featureB"

I know that this feature have to exists before export the product but I don't know where and how to do this.

of course I'm not able to export the product because of missing this requirement of featureB.

where I have to put featureB to correclty export the product?

In FeatureA if you go to the MANIFEST there is a tab called "Include Features" or something like that. You can put featureB in there.

You can still update the features individually. As part of your build
process, use the director to re-install the same feature that's part of
your product. That will make it a "root IU" and that can be updated
separately.
