Hi all,
we followed the instructions showed in severals p2 tutorials, that are:
1) create a Plug-in Project
2) create a Product Configuration (based on plug-ins)
3) export the Product
4) create a Feature Project (that includes the Plug-in Project)
5) create an Update Site Project (based on the previous Feature)
6) build the Update Site
at this point we are able to use successfully the Update Site in order to
install the initial Plug-in Project into an Eclipse IDE instance (via
Install New Software).
But we would like to install the Plug-in as a standalone product (please
note that the Plug-in has been created with option "Would you like to
create a rich client application"=yes). What shall we do? Are the steps
followed above still valid for this purpose?
Note that we are using Galileo (Eclipse 3.5).
Further:
- is it correct for our purpose to create a Plug-in based Product
Configuration?
- in case of one feature (say F1) with more than one Plug-in (say
P1,P2,P3), where (which project: P1,P2,P3,F1,UpdateSite project) is it
more advisable to create the Product Configuration)?
- if the result of the Product Configuration Export wizard is the final
product to deploy (btw: is this correct?), how it can be aware of the
update site location (the update site is the last step)?
Thank you very much
Vincenzo Caselli
