Description Lars Vogel

I created a new e4 project with the wizard from the tools. 

If I open the extension tab on plugin.xml (which is initially hidden), I don't see the defined extension. Also the plugin.xml tab is missing.

See attached screenshot. If I open the plugin.xml in a text editor I see.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<plugin>

   <extension
         id="product"
         point="org.eclipse.core.runtime.products">
      <product
            name="de.vogella.e4.rcp.wizard"
            application="org.eclipse.e4.ui.workbench.swt.E4Application">
         <property
               name="appName"
               value="de.vogella.e4.rcp.wizard">
         </property>
         <property
               name="applicationXMI"
               value="de.vogella.e4.rcp.wizard/Application.e4xmi">
         </property>
         <property
               name="applicationCSS"
               value="platform:/plugin/de.vogella.e4.rcp.wizard/css/default.css">
         </property>
      </product>
   </extension>

</plugin>

Probably the same problem as bug 333965 and bug 340099?

Don't think that these bugs cover completely the same, the tab "plugin.xml" is also missing.

This bit I've been able to reproduce. This is quite weird.

Tom, I think you may want to delay the opening of the MANIFEST.MF file after all the files have been created in your E4NewProjectWizard. When the file is first opened it doesn't have any tabs relating to the plugin.xml file. If you close the opened editor and then reopen it, the tabs appear.

Fixed by a patch from Dani in Eclipse 4.2 M7.
