Developing Extensions with Eclipse Plugin

Hi together,

today I tried to migrate my extension project to an Eclipse
UNO-IDL
project. The extension contains a protocol handler with the
Addons.xcu,... I created successfully the project, but when
exporting
the project as an oxt file, my description.xml,
manifest.xml,... is not
included in the extension. Do I have to add all this stuff
manually
afterwards? Or is there a chance to tell the package wizard
to include
these files?

Maybe you can help me in this matter.

Greetings, Tobias

Simply create a package.properties file at your project's
root. Open
this file a check the files to include. I should create an
empty
package.properties file during the project creation... I'll
add the issue.

Don't forget to file every issue on the Eclipse plugin:
  + component: sdk
  + subcomponent: eclipseintegration

Hope that helps,

I'll add the issue.

unfortunately it did not help. I use Eclipse
"Europa" 3.3.1 and Sun Java
6 on a Ubuntu Gutsy system. I created a file named
package.properties in
the root of the project manually, it is not added
automatically. Right
clicking it opens no special properties. What should I write
into the file?

Thanks for the hint! And thanks for the plugin.

Thanks for the info. Where can I get the unstable version
from?

Hum, as I've a bit less time to work on the plugin, I've no
time to fix
the important issues before a next release. I'm using an
unstable one
and the package.properties might be in that version.

I'll try to package an a-bit-better version before the end
of october...
with the package.properties.

may be I found other bugs:

1. When Exporting the Extension, I select OO version 2.0.4.
But no
description.xml is created for the package. But it is
mandatory for oxt
files.

2. I want to add my own META-INF/manifest.xml file, because
the
automatically generated one lacks the Addons.xcu and
ProtocolHandler.xcu. So I added a folder META-INF with the
manifest.xml
file to the root directory of my Project. After Exporting
the extension,
this folder was deleted!

Ok, a blank description file should be created then. Could
you file an
issue for this bug ?

This is normal, as the META-INF directory contains the
manifest.xml
file, which should be generated.
