[equinox-dev] Re: Problem Running 'org.eclipse.osgi' in development mode

["Piero Campanelli" <pierocampanelli@xxxxxxxxx>]

Analyzing again it seems that is unable to find manifest.fm for system
bundle (i am running an unpacked version of system bundle). I get:

.....
Caused by: org.eclipse.osgi.service.pluginconversion.PluginConversionException:
Could not find a META-INF/MANIFEST.MF, plugin.xml or a fragment.xml in
C:\Users\pc\eclipse_workspaces\equinox_cvs\org.eclipse.osgi\bin.
......

so how to run Equinox inside Eclipse directly from sources?
