I am trying to create an Acceleo plugin from existing projects and always get back this error message:

'Export Plug-ins' has encountered a problem.
/media/Data/users/lads/Trabalho/Eclipse/Workspace.Acceleo/.metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.pde.core/temp/org.eclipse.pde.container.feature/assemble.org.eclipse.pde.container.feature.linux.gtk.x86.xml:88: The following error occurred while executing this line:

/media/Data/users/lads/Trabalho/Eclipse/Workspace.Acceleo/org.eclipse.acceleo.module.sample/build.xml:422: Problem: failed to create task or type apitooling.apigeneration
Cause: The name is undefined.
Action: Check the spelling.
Action: Check that any custom tasks/types have been declared.
Action: Check that any <presetdef>/<macrodef> declarations have taken place.


This build.xml file seems to be created on the fly, when Acceleo is trying to generate the plugin. When it fails the file is deleted, so I can't check what may be wrong.

I have this same error with any Acceleo project, even newly created projects. I'm using Acceleo 3.3.0 on Eclipse Indigo. Thanks.

This issue is back with Acceleo 3.5.1. With Acceleo 3.3.0, installing available updates solved the problem, but not this time.

Any suggestions?
