Pergunta

I am working on the about-dialog of my Eclipse RCP Applicaiton.

The features, which I am using (native platform features and my own) only show up, when I do an export from Eclipse.

When I run my product in the IDE - the about dialog stays empty. The feature icons do not show up.

Question: Where is the problem?

About dialog, when the product was exported:

About dialog, when the product is started inside of the IDE:

Solução

Although unexpected, I think that's normal. I see the same behavior in my RCP application.

Outras dicas

Go to Window>Preferences. Under Plug-In Development>Target Platform, set up your target platform to match the product you are exporting. You can use org.eclipse.rcp as a base and go from there, adding features from either Eclipse itself, or from a p2 repo.

The default is to load the IDE itself as part of the runtime configuration.

That said, I am not sure the Features dialog actually works when running from within the IDE. I remember from a while back that there was a limitation here, but unfortunately I can no longer find a reference to this.
