Do you plan to provide the eclipse plugins as a p2 site ?

Post by gfloodgate »

Hello,

We are looknig to include Oxygen authoring as part of a suite we build.

The eclipse build process we use is based around Tycho, and as such we need our targets to be in eclipse p2 repositories. You appear to still be using the legacy site.xml format.

My question is do you have any plan to migrate to p2 style repositories ?

Thanks
Gareth

@Adrian:
+1 for this request.

If anybody else runs into this. Here is the workaround from the Tycho documentation:

http://wiki.eclipse.org/Tycho/Additiona ... ndles_goal
  1. mirror the oXygen repository
  2. put the result into your webserver (local or remote)
  3. add the URL as "Software Site" to your target Definition
  4. if no bundles are listed together with the message "There are no categorized items", uncheck "Group by Category"
