Problems migrating to 4.1 (creating target platform) [message #642097]

I'm having trouble creating a target platform for 4.1 for a very simple
e4 based RCP. I have a target platform for 4.0 defined that works with
no problems and I've been able to set up a headless build using
Buckminster and Hudson that uses it.

The next step on my to do list was to migrate to 4.1 so I tried to
define a target platform from 4.1M3 using the repository at:

http://download.eclipse.org/e4/sdk/drops/S-4.1M3-20101029111 8/repository

For my 4.0 target platform I used:

http://download.eclipse.org/e4/sdk/drops/R-4.0-201007271520/ repository

My problem is that I can't seem to find the bundle
org.eclipse.equinox.concurrent to add it to my 4.1 target platform, even
after including all the features in the repository. This isn't a
problem for my 4.0 target.

I think there must be some simple concept or piece of knowledge I'm
missing, because it really shouldn't be this hard.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

Dan

How are you creating your target platform? mirroring the repo?

org.eclipse.equinox.concurrent_1.0.100.v20100503.jar is in the M3 repo,
but it is not included in any features (it must be included transitively
by a plugin dependency somehow).

Paul,

By "mirroring the repo" do you mean pulling "everything" out of the
Eclipse repositories and then creating the target platform from what's
on my disk? Then, No. I'm going to the update site and creating my
target platform by hand using the target editor. I'm trying to set up a
headless build using Hudson and Buckminster and I have that working for
4.0. Now I'm beginning to wonder how I got that to work.

I managed to find org.eclipse.equinox.concurrent in the indigo update
site so I got past that, but now I'm having trouble finding the
org.eclipse.equinox.executable feature.

I can tell that I'm simply missing something obvious and just need
someone in the next cubicle to set me straight on what the best practice
is. The only problem is that I work at home :-)

Thanks

Dan

It looks like I was getting caught by:

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=331708

With some help from Paul Webster, I used:

http://download.eclipse.org/e4/sdk/drops/I20101202-915/repos itory
http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/updates/3.7-I-builds/I20 101130-0900

and was able to resolve things and resolve things.
