No available Software Sites while TargetPlatform build [message #687871] Thu, 23 June 2011 08:31 Go to next message

Since yesterday, I use Eclipse 3.7

Today, I try to build a new TargetPlatform.
I go Menu -> Window -> Preferences -> Plug-in Develepoment -> TargetPlatform

There I add a new Target Definition -> select "Nothing: Start with an empty target definition" -> Next

Now I try to add a new Location -> Software Site

Inside the DropDown Field are NO sites available.
(Adding a site like http://download.eclipse.org/releases/indigo into the field it works with it)

I looked at my old 3.62 Eclipse, there are all my software site.

Under Eclipse 3.7, I try it with a enhanced Eclipse Moldeling Tools 3.7 download and a fresh Eclipse Classic 3.7 (Windows 32 bit) download

It is a big Bug or a new feature, that there are none of my normal software sites?

Greetings
Heiko

This is a new feature. The target platform now has its own p2 profile. This means that changes in the workspace install won't mess up your target and vice versa. However, this also means that moving from 3.6 to 3.7 will give you an empty list.
