I recently installed a feature and it's plugins to a p2-enabled RCP
application with success: Both the feature and the plugins are installed
as expected in the plugins and feature folder of the RCP app.
As suggested I added the ".feature.group" string as IU identifier
After this I tried an uninstall process, where I changed only the
following lines:
1) I replaced the call argument
-installIU someid.feature.group
by
-uninstallIU someid.feature.group
2) I did not list the -repository argument
This deinstallation seems to have succeeded (no error message or log
file) and as expected the before installed feature is no longer existing
in the features folder. *But* the plugins are still part of the plugins
folder. Is this a known and expected behaviour? Personally I would
strongly appreciate to have the plugins removed as well. Is there some
additional call argument necessary to realize that?
Thanks & Greetings from Bremen,
Daniel Krügler

Afaik, things should be removed by the p2 gc which runs as part of any
p2 operation. It may be possible to only run the gc...
