Problems creating update site [message #332948] Sun, 16 November 2008 09:35 Go to next message

Hi everybody,

I have a couple of plug-in which have reached a state where I would like
to publish them through an update site. Unfortunately, I'm having a
couple of issues with that:

First, building the update site works fine, but installing does not:
When I point a second eclipse instance to the update site project and
try to install, I get unsatisfied dependencies which I have attached
below as (1).

The point is that the missing editor plug.in is available - in fact,
it's not a dependency, but a part of the editor feature (i.e., it
appears on the feature's Plug-ins tab). I moved the editor plug-in to
another feature, but than that feature was missing the editor plug-in. I
don't see anything wrong with the editor plug-in manifest, which I have
attached as (2).

The second issue is about a plug-in A which also is part of the editor
feature. A couple of other plug-ins also part of the feature depend on
pug-in A. Now, for some reason, A occurs on the (computed) Dependencies
tab of the editor feature, and (of course) on the feature's Plug-ins
tab, which I find kind of strange. I'm not sure if this might cause any
trouble (maybe it's related with the issue above?)...

The last (minor) thing is that in the update site's site.xml, I have
created a category, provided id and label, and added all my features to
that category. In the update ui of the second eclipse instance, the
features still appear in the Uncategorized category.

Maybe someone can help me out with this stuff, or point me to some
update site troubleshooting guide :-)

Thanks,
Chris

As workaround (don't know if it has any side-effect) delete content.xml
and artifacts.xml files from your Update Site and the category will work
fine.

Hope this helps,

Chemi.

Deleting the files also solved my major problem (unsatisfied
dependencies) :-)

I'm also wondering about the side-effects though - I think I've read
that this decreases performance, but I'm not observing that.

Thanks,
Chris
