Solution

  • You don't seem to have the plugin.xml (and possibly other things) in your build.properties. A more or less standard build.properties for a plug-in would be:

    source.. = src/
output.. = bin/
bin.includes = META-INF/,\
           .,\
           OSGI-INF/,\
           plugin.xml

    OSGI-INF can be left out if you don't have that folder.
