Convert target platform to p2 update site [message #541916]

Is there an easy way to convert a target platform to a p2 site?

The director application doesn't recognise my target platform as a valid
repository...

Create a feature that includes the target platform components and execute site.p2 on that feature.

A target platform reflects installed content (i.e. runnable, unpacked artifacts). It is not a repository and in many
cases there will no content.xml (or content.jar) to reflect the meta-data.
