| <h1>Building plug-ins / bundles</h1> |
| <p> |
| In order to build plug-ins, bundles or fragments, PDE build requires that you create a feature listing all the elements to be built. |
| In this case the feature is only used to drive the build and will not be present in the final archive nor will it force you to use update sites. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| A feature used to drive a plug-in build is a standard feature. What makes it different is that its build.properties file does not contain the property bin.includes. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| Once you have created the feature to drive the build, follow the instructions on <a href="pde_feature_build.htm">building features</a>. |
