I am trying to automate the build, using pde build, of a p2-enabled, 3.4
version of Simon's servletbridge.
By manual assembly and configuration I have a working version of the
servletbridge using 3.4 bundles and p2-enbaled. Using the osgi console api
I can provision new bundles into the system using p2. This is excellent.
But I know need to automate the build of this product.
To some extent I've been able to do this. I have a build script that uses
pde build to build a root feature, p2 generator to generate p2 metadata and
artifact repositories and p2 director to install the root feature into my
webapp structure. This also generates the p2 profile.
What I dont know is how to deal with the bundles.info file.
Is the p2 director app meant to generate it for me?
How do you manage this yourselves for the various eclipse products that you
now build; j2ee, classic, etc?
Thanks in advance
_Paul

The director app will generate the bundles.info for you, but only if you
include org.eclipse.equinox.simpleconfigurator, and you have metadata
that starts that bundle.
To get the appropriate start level metadata generated, you should look
at doing a product build. (You can define "includeLaunchers=false" to
get a product build without launchers).
I believe the 3.5 versions of the various eclipse packages are built
from .product files.

Hi Andrew,
That worked for me. Many thanks.
Is there anyway that I can influence the startlevel and activate flag that
each bundle entry gets in the bundles.info file?
Thanks,
_Paul
