Hello,
A source features which has been generated via generate.feature has the
same label as the containing feature. With the old update-site mechanism
this did not come to my attention since the old (3.3.) update manager does
not show the source feature. It is automatically installed with its
containing feature but it does not show up in the list of installable
features.
Now, with Eclipse 3.4, when I generate the p2 repository with the PDE
build and then update via this repository, the update manager also shows
included features which includes the source feature. This is quite
confusing because the source feature can not be discriminated from its
containing feature. Both have the same label and version.
How could this situation be handled? Is there a way to modify the label of
the source feature? Or could the p2 generation be modified so that the
update manager does not display included features? So far I have used the
following properties: generate.p2.metadata, p2.metadata.repo,
p2.artifact.repo, p2.metadata.repo.name,p2.artifact.repo.name, p2.flavor,
p2.publish.artifacts
Thanks
Markus
