Description Thomas Watson

2007-05-03 17:40:02 EDT

To reproduce create a bundle that has the following bundle manifest header:

Eclipse-PlatformFilter: (osgi.os=test)

If you try to export this bundle from the workspace then PDE-Build appears to complete with no error dialogs or error logs.  But the bundle output cannot be found.

It is not technically a failure since the feature that PDE UI generates does not contain the plug-in to compile :)

This is somewhat related to bug 172585.  I was testing out what happens when I had an Eclipse-PlatformFilter that had arbitrary properties (i.e. Eclipse-PlatformFilter: (pde=cool)

The same thing happens if I use this header.  I suspect this may improve if bug 172585 is fixed to allow developers to define additional properties.
