Missing platform-specific plugins in new RCP app


If I use New -> Eclipse 4 Application Project, and look into my .product file, there's this

Right. So I know I'm using Eclipse 4.5.1 RCP for Windows x64, but if I configure my target platform so that it points to the Eclipse update sites, I still get the same result.

Mind you that there's no delta pack since 4.5.x! All platform-specific plugins should be in the target platform's update sites.

Solution

  • The plugin list used by this Wizard is out of date. For example the Mac OSX plugins shown as errors no longer exist and I think that applies to the others shown as errors as well.

    The 'New > Eclipse 4 Application Project' wizard is being removed altogether in Eclipse 4.6 bug 473575

    Instead of this wizard use 'New > Plug-in Development > Plug-in Project'. Check the 'This project will make contributions to the UI' option and 'Yes' for 'would you like to create a rich client application'. On the templates page choose 'Eclipse 4 RCP application'
