Doing platform specific feature/plugin releases? [message #299939] Tue, 28 February 2006 06:56 Go to next message

Hi,

I'd like to be able to generate feature releases that only
contain the plugins and fragments need for a specific OS.

Eclipse.org release there plugins in this way, eg:

http://download.eclipse.org/tools/cdt/releases/eclipse3.1/di st/3.0.2

I'd like to generate win32 and linux distributions automatically from my
plugin, fragment and and feature projects.

Anyone know how to do this?

Cheers, Steve.

Don't know if I can answer all of your questions but I can give a start.

First you need to download and install the delta pack from the main
Eclipse web site. This will contain all the files you need for the
various OS and will add a second area to the export dialog.

Next you need to add org.eclipse.rcp as required feature to your main
feature file. It contains all the logic to include the proper SWT files
during export and ant builds. This means the MAC stuff will be put in
the MAC directory etc.

You do not want to add OS specific requires or plug in fragments. If
you mess around with it enough Eclipse will take care of it.

I just got done going through a huge multi-day fight to get this all in
place. Sad to say I can't remember every thing I did as I tried and
failed so many times. But maybe new questions from you will jar my memory.
