Eclipse RCP About Window

Question

When developing "about window" in RCL Eclipse, we need to determine:

 aboutText = My text which will be shown in about window

in about.ini file.

I need to add the version number that is defined on the overview page of the .product file. Is there a way to parameterize this string?

I tried adding {featureVersion} to aboutText, but it does not work - my window does not appear then.

Thank!

Not so difficult ... Use {0}, {1}etc. in the text itself and create the file about.mappingswith:

0=abc
1=def
