i've inherited an Eclipse RCP Project from a colleague who left the company. Along with the project comes the pde build setup, which i don't quite get. During development of the latest release, i need to add another plugin (org.eclipse.compare...). I added it to the target platform and keept programming. But there are now problems with the build. The finished product doesn't contain the added plugin .jar. How can i change the build, so that the jar is added? I'm grateful for any hints. Followed a few clues while seraching through the build files, but that turnend up nothing.

Check out the template properties file, which has documentation for properties. Relevant properties is pluginPath
and especially baseLocation
. It is located at:
[path-to.eclipse]/plugins/org.eclipse.pde.build_[version]/templates/headless-build/build.properties
Consider to copy it and base your build upon it. It might make it easier to maintain your build in the future.
