Description Aleksandr Kravets CLA 2010-11-12 12:08:33 EST
Build Identifier: 20100917-0705

I've been trying to build an eclipse based product. This is my setup:

x.y.z.product.feature - top feature that has all necessary dependencies as well as product definition. Product definition does not have version or id as per this discussion (http://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php?t=msg&th=155943&start=0&S=68795d852090e2d1c4330569678eee35). This feature also defines reference to branding plugin.

z.y.z.build.feature - feature from which build is kicked off. Has product.ant, cquery, rmap.

target platform is for eclipse 3.4 and I am using Buckminster 3.6.

The product launches fine, and build is producing branded eclipse, but when I view installed software section I see 0.0.0 for version number, and in eclipse/p2/org.eclipse.equinox.p2.core/cache/binary I see this x.y.z.executable.gtk.linux.x86_64_0.0.0. Also, no .eclipseproduct file is generated, I might wrong about this because I couldn't find enough documentation about .eclipseproduct file, but I thought that it was suppose to be generated during the build.

Reproducible: Always

The executable not having version number had to do with presence of o.e.rcp in product's dependency - my mistake. However, I still don't get .eclipseproduct generated after building with Buckminster. I tried exporting product using product export wizard and file is being generated. Why would .eclipseproduct fail to be created when I  build the product?

Closing because nature of this bug is not an issue, however there is still issue with .eclipseproduct file generation, https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=332169 covers that.
