This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet. As such, we're closing this bug. If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it and reopen this bug. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant. -- The automated Eclipse Genie. |
It appears in the original prototype, there was some confusion, or experiments, on if "rcp.config" should be defined as a "product" or a feature. Its currently a feature. Maybe it should be a product, in the interest of "creating a proper repository"? ... but, until then, seems the "extra" files should be removed. The extra ones are buildConfiguration.xml (well, and this one seems to be "pure pde" ... that's never ever used in current builds). config.product ("includes" the org.eclipse.equinox.executable feature). The interesting part of its definition is: = = = = <product uid="org.eclipse.rcp.configuration" version="1.0.0.qualifier" useFeatures="true" includeLaunchers="true"> <features> <feature id="org.eclipse.equinox.executable" /> </features> = = = = But, as mentioned, not used, currently. config.p2.inf The interesting thing about "config.p2.inf" is that it is "named" for "product", but chances are, it should stay, and simply be renamed for a feature ... which would be, simply "p2.inf". I'm not _positive_ its needed, but it does seem important in that its what renames "launcher" to "eclipse"? (But, Tycho, I think, may have its own way of doing that ... but, this might be required for "delta pack"?
