Hi,
I am developing a plug-in that I need to update frequently for testing
purposes. For some reason I cannot / do not want to use the runtime
workbench, but install the plug-in into eclipse.
I created a local update site and imported the feature containing the
plug-ins. That worked. Both where imported into
~/.eclipse/org.eclipse.platform_3.4.0_131362647/features and ..../plugins
respectively.
Now I don't want to increase the version number of the plug-in for every
test. So I tried to uninstall the feature. As a result the files
in ..../features were deleted, but the jars of the plug-ins where kept
in ..../plugins. After modifying and rebuilding the plug-in, rebuilding the
feature and installing it (with the same versions) in eclipse, only the
files in ..../features where created again. The plug-in files
in ..../plug-in where still the old ones.
Sure, I can change the jar-files of the plug-in by hand in the ..../plugins
directory by hand.
However, can one achieve the same with the Update Manager, as described
above? Or might there be a bug in eclipse?
Thanks in advance!
-Karl
