Hi,
I need to assembly an Eclipse package from a list of update sites. To
save some time and avoid downloading each update site every time I'm
building the package, I'd like to be able to download the update sites
to a local folder in an one-off step and then use EPP with these local
update sites.
I suspect that EPP already contains functionality that I can reuse for
downloading the contents of an update site (site.xml, plugins, features)
to a local folder but I can't figure out which classes I should use. Any
pointers would be much appreciated.
Cheers,
Dimitris

Dimitris,
To copy repositories (former update sites), use p2 Mirror Application.
