I don't know what this is -- never seen it ... You should checkout
woproject/wolips/entityModeler to see how Entity Modeler builds, but
there are definitely oddities in this process. Eclipse product deploy
wants to overwrite build.xml files with its own temp build.xml (and
then delete them, which is super retarded), but build.xml's are
required to actually make a wolips build, so I don't know if you'll
run into problems or not. Entity Modeler only needs a subset of the
plugins, so I don't know what happens if you try to do this for all of
them. I also don't know what happens if you try to make a wolips
product and then try to do an upgrade from the Eclipse update site,
whether it actually installs the features properly or not necessary to
know which build number is installed. I have a feeling you're going
to be fighting this one. Also, Jeremy Matthews is working on
(basically has a) WOLips installer package with all the parts. The
only thing that's different is that he doesn't have an overridden
welcome page, but honestly I'm not sure it's worth the pain to go
through this eclipse deploy process just for that, but I'll let you be
the judge of your own pain threshold.
