Custom Eclipse package

Question

I'd like to package Eclipse + a few custom plugins, for internal use.

The package will contain the

• Platform Runtime Binary ( win32 and linux x86 gtk );
• Mylyn Task List;
• Mylyn Focused UI;
• Mantis Connector for Mylyn.

How can I produce these custom builds?

Answer 1

How about taking a ready zip from the Eclipse site and putting these three plugins into the plugins and features directory?

Answer 2

You can follow the article "Composing and updating custom Eclipse distros" for eclipse Galileo.

If that approach is too complex, you can simply define a shared plugin directory in which you will dump the common plugins you need.
