Just getting started with RCP packager

[davidallen]

Created a RCP from the create wizard - selected the RCP Application with Veiw. Ran this successfully in test mode. Used the export wizard. The resulting executable will not launch with a can't find companion library error.

Verified my steps against the docs. Any suggestion on what may be the issue?

Screenshot attached.

generating config.ini for eclipse >= 3.2

[davidallen]

OK found this post: viewtopic.php?f=6&t=2038&p=7499&hilit=companion#p7499

Which cleared up the issue of launching for me - I now have a RuntimeException: No application id has been found

Likely something I failed to do in the create of the sample project. Will work on that separately.

Any reason we have to manually copy jars around to get the wizard to work? Would have expected that to be something the wizard did.

Just keeps getting stranger....

Created a new RCP Application via the wizard, this time going with the Contact Manager. Everything runs fine within eclipse.

Export RCP fails with the following:

Unable to find plug-in: org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_1.0.200.v20090520. Please check the error log for more details.

The latest - a complete reinstall of eclipse pde and a clean workspace allow me to export using the built in export function.

Reinstalled plugins for RCP Packager (Packager only at this point) and get the folloiwng ant errors.
