touchpoint action when plugin updates [message #830610]

Hi,

I know how to create a touchpoint action when the plugin is installed for the first time. This is done with following p2.inf settings which uses my own install feature:

metaRequirements.0.namespace=org.eclipse.equinox.p2.osgi   
metaRequirements.0.name=installAction    
metaRequirements.0.range=1.0   
  
instructions.configure=installAction();   
instructions.configure.import=featureproject.mytouchpoint.custominstall.installAction

However I also would like to add custom code when the plugin updates.
I also need the previous installed version of the installed plugin-bundle that is being updated

Could you give any example/help?

Regards,
Phil

Hi,

I solved it myself. The problem was the range. However if the range is set with the more recent versions included it still aborts with an error that it can't install another touchpoint (when installing the custom plugin) so I just removed the range and now it seems to take the most recent one... Any information because of this behaviour would be welcome Smile

Regards,
Phil
