Downloading specfic version using update site [message #519822]

Hi ,
I have developed my plugin using GMF and I have created one update site project for it. For this in my feature project I have specified GMF as <requires>. So while installing my plugin it download all the required dependencies from web.

Now I want to control the version of GMF plugins getting downloaded using update site. For instance I want my update site to download
" org.eclipse.gmf_1.1.1.v20090114-0940-7d8B0FXwnKwGb15VuKFF0EL pPk0b "
this version of GMF but it downloads " org.eclipse.gmf_1.3.0.v20091021-2333-7d8W3FXwnL5Tg7CuwHV2mGB rQk0b " version

I tried to specify the version number in my feature.xml file but it still downloads the latest version.

How I can specify the version to be downloaded in my update site project?

Thanks in advance
Vikas

Hi Vikas,

you need to set the maximum version on your plugins dependencies, if you
like exluding specific versions.

e.g.
Require-Bundle:
org.eclipse.gmf.runtime.diagram.ui;bundle-version="[1.1.0,1.2.0) "

within the plugins manifest.

Thank you Sven for your response.

I tried to specify the maximum version as suggested by you. In my feature project in feature.xml file I gave dependency as :
<import plugin="org.eclipse.gmf.runtime.diagram.ui" version="(1.1.0,1.2.0)"/> but schema for feature.xml doesn't validate it at all . Could you please give me some pointer or example how I can specify specific version.

Best regards,
Vikas

Hi,
I understood the problem. I was doing this in feature.xml but I should be doing this in my plugins manfies.mf file. But now the problem is when I give the required plugin constrain as you suggested , I am getting error
"Unsatisfied version Constraint : 'org.eclipse.gmf.runtime.diagram.ui: [1.1.0,1.2.0)' ".I tried to change the version numbers but for any version I am getting the same error. I am using galileo and gmf version 2.2.0.

Thank you
Vikas

Hm!? I'm using Graphical Modeling Framework SDK version
2.2.1(.v20090814-1000...), which seems not available any more... So you
might really need help from the project guys. Zorry.

I posted the same query to eclipse comunity as well . Could you please tell me how I can get help from project guys?

I didn't get any help from web as well for this particular problem. Now I am really wondering is it really possible or not ?

Best regards,
Vikas

Hi Vikas,

usually you are here at the right place, but it looks like the gmf
support is slowing down over the last time. It's open source and you are
not able to force people spending their time to help you. On the other
hand: you see there is an active community that tries to help as much as
possible.

I went to the gmf download page. There is the 2.2.1 as manual download
available. Did you try this a local install site or archive?
