Bug 333729

Summary: Specified custom config.ini isn't included to Product-Build, instead of that always a new is generated.

Description Missing name CLA 2011-01-07 03:58:57 EST 
Build Identifier: 20100917-0705

Create a product, add some plugins etc., then select the "Confguration" tab. Scroll down to "Configuration File", select the Platform you're building the product for. Select "Use an existing config.ini file" and specify one there.

I'm using the "Browse..." button to do this and select one of my prepared config.ini's. But after I build (for example using the export wizard) the Product, the config.ini is not included. Instead a new generated (with wrong settings I don't want) is included.

The path of the config.ini shows this string: /<here my project name>/config.ini. (ofcourse <here my project name> points to one of my projects, which contains the .product file itself).

I also have "The product includes native launcher artifacts" selected and I'm using the delta-pack, because I build my products for multiple platforms. Then I have to manually copy my config.ini's and overwrite the generate.

I also tried to edit the .product manually. But it does not help.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. On the product wizard go to Configuration tab
2. Go to Configuration File and select an existing config.ini file
3. Build the product for example using the product export wizard -> your custom config.ini is not included, but a new one is generated instead...

Currently we are not actively enhancing PDE build anymore. Therefore, I close this bug as WONTFIX. 

Please reopen, if you plan to provide a fix.
