how to use p2.generator ant task to create metadata and artifacts [message #812561] Sat, 03 March 2012 20:14 Go to next message

I tried to use p2.generator ant task to create p2 repository metadata and artifacts after I successfully create a update site.

I run the following ant task
<p2.generator
source="file:D:/tasks/DI/di/DIBuildExample/updateSite/"
features="file:D:/tasks/DI/di/DIBuildExample/updateSite/features/"
bundles="file:D:/tasks/DI/di/DIBuildExample/updateSite/plugins/"
updateSite="file:D:/tasks/DI/di/DIBuildExample/updateSite/"
site="file:D:/tasks/DI/di/DIBuildExample/updateSite/site.xml"
append="true"
metadataRepository="file:D:/tasks/DI/di/DIBuildExample/updateSite/"
metadataRepositoryName="content"
artifactRepository="file:D:/tasks/DI/di/DIBuildExample/updateSite/"
artifactRepositoryName="artifacts"
p2OS="win32"
/>

undear file:D:/tasks/DI/di/DIBuildExample/updateSite/
it contains features and plugins folders which contain features and plugins I built and site.xml file.
The ant task does create artifacts.xml and content.xml but those two files does not contain any features or plugins I built. Bascially, the 2 files are kind of empty and do not contain the metadata.

I got error: [p2.generator] Generating metadata for null.

Any thing wrong I did ? Or I have to do some other settings?

artifacts.xml and content.xml are created. But they do not contain any feature or plugin information. D:/tasks/DI/di/DIBuildExample/updateSite is a update site I built and contains features & plugins folders which have newly built feature. I also got error in my pde build:
[p2.generator] Generating metadata for null.

what's wrong I did and do I miss some settings?
