Hi Thomas,
We haven't developed anything that automatically derives a setup file from an existing installation. We plan to do that
as part of our commercial offering that's hopefully coming soon. In the meantime you can use a trick to author the
P2Director task(s) for your setup file quite easily. Open the new "Repository Explorer" view in Eclipse and your
system's file manager (e.g., Windows Explorer), then find your installations profile folder under your p2 agent folder
(e.g., file:/C:/Users/Stepper/.p2/org.eclipse.equinox.p2.engine/profileRegistry/C__develop_oomph_eclipse.profile), drag
it and drop it on the Repository Explorer's URL combo box. You should see all the features/IUs in your current
installation and be able to drag them and drop them into your setup file's P2Director task(s). I hope that helps ;-)
Cheers
/Eike

Abel,
The bottom part of that view has versions for the selected IU. With the
check and radio buttons you can influence what range is represented, and
you can drag and drop those to get the range you want.
