Description Chemi CLA 2003-09-06 07:41:28 EDT 
I have a feature which includes five plugins. Two of those plugins are help
plugins so I want that at deployment time all the help files being into a
doc.zip file. As I didn't find a way to do this within buil.properties files, I
created the automatic ANT buil file and cutomized it (just for those two plugins).

Then, I added the line: custom=true to build.properties file (just for thos two
plugins).

Problem? Each time a export the feature, those two build.xml customized files
are deleted. Note: The feature and the pugins are exported correctly.

So I have to import from CVS the customized build.xml files each time I need to
export the feature.

I understand this is a bug.

This is fixed in 3.0
Comment 2 Chemi CLA 2003-09-08 03:28:59 EDT 
Won't be a patch or a new R2.1.2 before R3.0? This bug is really annoying and I
didn't want to develop with a Milestone. I prefered to wait until final R3.0

Moving to PDE-UI to make sure that they handle the case.
Please confirm and close.
