Minimizing dependencies when deploying [message #1671412]

Hi,

I'm deploying an Xtext DSL on Equinox and want to minimize the set of
included (and started) plugins. I only need to parse DSL resources, and
I've created a separate DSL runtime project, that mwe generates code
into, to avoid needing depedencies that are only used when generating
the DSL. But the DSL's xtext plugin requires org.eclipse.xtext which in
turn requires emf.codegen, emf.mwe and xtend, so these are anyway needed
for my DSL plugin to resolve.

Is there a way to trim the dependencies, e.g. require a slimmer
org.eclipse.xtext.runtime plugin, to avoid this? Ideally, the plugin
dependencies should be be generated by the mwe fragments, so only the
really necessary dependencies are added.

Hi,

ain't that dependencies optional? at least they should be. thus it is a matter of tooling / how you deploy the stuff?
e.g. in tycho there is a flag to ignore opt. deps when building a product
