A note on deployment descriptor files (*.egldd):
The model for these files is different in EDT so you cannot reuse deployment descriptors from RBD. If you have a *.egldd file that's in the old format, and you want to "reset" it to be empty, you can open it with a text editor and replace it with the following:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <egl:deployment xmlns:egl= "http://www.eclipse.org/xmlns/edt/deployment/1.0" > </egl:deployment>
