I couldn't find any documents about upgrading from 2.2.1 to 2.3.0. The release notes only mention new features.

1. Are there any code changes necessary to update to 2.3.0?

2. Should it be possible to update Eclipse using the archived update site from http://www.eclipse.org/modeling/tmf/downloads/?

Regards,

A. Digulla

Depends on your customizations. I have quite a few complicated
customizations, and managed to move my code from 2.2.1 to 2.3.0 in 1-2
hours.

How about updating the Eclipse plug-ins? Did anyone manage that? Is/should it be possible?

I get lots of errors from p2 because many Xtext bundles are singletons and Eclipse refuses to update them :-/ Two examples are the docs and examples:

Xtext documentation

Why can't I install two versions of the docs?

Sure. "Check for updates" should do the trick.

That indicates an inconsistent manual selection of to-be-installed features.

Hi

In my experience, p2 is not perfect and I have had trouble when using
N-builds. It appears that
p2 does not always recognize that there is something consistently better
enabling it to kick out the
old. I have sometimes had to manually uninstall the unwanted version to
enable installation of the
new. This then works; I don't now why because often the uninstall breaks
the prerequisites of
other still installed software.

Anyway; just Uninstall problematic old stuff and you could be ok.

Regards

Damn.

In my case, it means that I must not merge your p2 update site with other update sites into one big update site Sad

I probably could use a composite p2 repo but that causes a lot of unnecessary traffic. *sigh*

What I don't understand: How can p2 update the bundles from your site (even though they are singletons) but not from mine?? Is there some trick to tell p2 that it can update a singleton?

A. Digulla

Have you checked that your non-updateable "singleton" is not bound by
something else that you are not updating ?

Well, the error message says:

  Software being installed: Xtext Documentation 2.3.0.v201206120633 (org.eclipse.xtext.docs.feature.group 2.3.0.v201206120633)
  Software currently installed: Xtext SDK 2.2.1.v201112130541 (org.eclipse.xtext.sdk.feature.group 2.2.1.v201112130541)
  Only one of the following can be installed at once:
    Xtext Documentation 2.3.0.v201206120633 (org.eclipse.xtext.doc 2.3.0.v201206120633)
    Xtext Documentation 2.2.1.v201112130541 (org.eclipse.xtext.doc 2.2.1.v201112130541)


so basically, I can't update Xtext Documentation because Xtext SDK wants the old version of the docs.

But I get a similar error when I try to update Xtext SDK :-/ I just tried to come up with a shorter error message. I guess I'll have to try again.

If you repackage Xtext features on an own update site, you have to make
sure that you include all features. Otherwise the update procedure won't
work since not all features that were previously installed can be
updated if you miss one of those.

Sebastian
