Description Dennis O'Flynn

Product definitions based upon plug-in configuration does not create bundles.info.  However, product definitions based upon feature configurations does.

I created a simple product definition based upon plug-in configuration.  The org.eclipse.equinox.simpleconfigurator bunlde was included in this configuration.  When the product was exported, it failed to create the bundles.info file.  Only the config.ini file was created.

I re-defined the product definition to be based upon feature configuration.  The feature was defined to include the same plug-ins defined in the plug-in configuration.  When the product was exported, the bundles.info was properly defined and referenced within the config.ini file.

this feels like a friend of the inconsistency discussed in bug 272488.  The behaviour here should be consistent.

For now, try marking simple.configurator as started (say at level 2) in the plugin-based product and see if exporting that works.  I have done this with the mail example and it worked.

I have done further testing on this with the code from HEAD.
- If I don't specify any start level in the product configuration tab, and have simpleconfigurator listed among the plug-ins, then the resulting product has a bundles.info
- If I use the feature mode, things are fine here too.
- If I specify any start level, then I have problems (see bug #273747)

Right now I'm closing as a dup of this last bug.
