There is an article in the Eclipse wiki how to configure user's p2 default repositories of an RCP application by adding a static conf file to your product:

Adding Self-Update to an RCP Application - Configuring the user's default repositories

I want to do the same programmatically in a Java class when the user changes some configuration details. I could not find appropriate p2 API documentation for that.

Daniel,

Here is the code I use to load a Repository from a URI into the manager. repoLocation is an instance of URI. Hopefully this helps.

	
				//Load repository manager
				metadataManager = (IMetadataRepositoryManager) provisioningAgent.getService(IMetadataRepositoryManager.SERVICE_NAME);
				if(metadataManager == null) {
					Throwable throwable = new Throwable(Messages.Updater_could_not_load + " Metadata Repository Manager");
					throwable.fillInStackTrace();
					throw new InvocationTargetException(throwable);
				}

				//Load artifact manager
				artifactManager = (IArtifactRepositoryManager) provisioningAgent.getService(IArtifactRepositoryManager.SERVICE_NAME);
				if(artifactManager == null) {
					Throwable throwable = new Throwable(Messages.Updater_could_not_load + " Artifact Repository Manager");
					throwable.fillInStackTrace();
					throw new InvocationTargetException(throwable);
				}

				//Load repo
				try {
					metadataManager.loadRepository(repoLocation, null);
					artifactManager.loadRepository(repoLocation, null);
				} catch (ProvisionException pe) {
					throw new InvocationTargetException(pe);
				}

There are also static methods in class ProvisioningHelper from bundle org.eclipse.equinox.p2.console - unfortunately there is no documentation...

// from bundle org.eclipse.equinox.p2.console
    import org.eclipse.equinox.internal.p2.console.ProvisioningHelper;

    URI repoUri = new URI(UPDATE_SITE_URL);
    try {
        ProvisioningHelper.addMetadataRepository(repoUri);         
    } catch( Exception e ) {
        LOG.warn("Can not add update repository: " + repoUri);           
    }
    try {
        ProvisioningHelper.addArtifactRepository(repoUri);          
    } catch( Exception e ) {
        LOG.warn("Can not add update repository: " + repoUri);
    }

Daniel,

//Load repository manager
metadataManager = (IMetadataRepositoryManager) provisioningAgent.getService(IMetadataRepositoryManager.SERV ICE_NAME);
if(metadataManager == null) {
Throwable throwable = new Throwable(Messages.Updater_could_not_load + " Metadata Repository Manager");
throwable.fillInStackTrace();
throw new InvocationTargetException(throwable);
}

//Load artifact manager
artifactManager = (IArtifactRepositoryManager) provisioningAgent.getService(IArtifactRepositoryManager.SERV ICE_NAME);
if(artifactManager == null) {
Throwable throwable = new Throwable(Messages.Updater_could_not_load + " Artifact Repository Manager");
throwable.fillInStackTrace();
throw new InvocationTargetException(throwable);
}

//Load repo
try {
metadataManager.loadRepository(repoLocation, null);
artifactManager.loadRepository(repoLocation, null);
} catch (ProvisionException pe) {
throw new InvocationTargetException(pe);
}

Those methods aren't visible anymore in the new api, for whatever reason
