dsl plugin in another eclipse app [message #758224]

Hey,

How can I package my DSL plugin to get it working in another Eclipse application without the Xtext framework installed? Now i get this error messege it's quite obvious.

Cannot complete the install because one or more required items could not be found.
  
  Missing requirement: *********************************************************** [b]requires 'org.eclipse.xtext 2.1.0' but it could not be found[/b]

Or if not this way, is there any way to bring up the xtext installer in the "install new software" window if someone want to use my plugin but don't have Xtext Bungle installed yet.

Thanks for your help.

Hi,

usually, you provide your plugin via an update site that automatically pulls the required plugin (listing associated update sites that contain them should suffice). There is no way to provide the DSL plugin without Xtext.

Hi,

I checked and remembered incorrectly. When defining the feature (feature project with feature.xml) containing your DSL you can add "sites to visit" for checking further update sites.

Hi,

I tryed to add http:[slash][slash]download.eclipse.org/modeling/tmf/updates/releases url to "Sites to Visit" in my feature xml on tab information. Still not working. I only get my feature when i try to install it. Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Dan
