specific service release update site [message #1726088]

Hi there,

following this wiki page
https://wiki.eclipse.org/Eclipse_Project_Update_Sites

there are two different updatesites for Eclipse Mars.2

http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/updates/4.5
http://download.eclipse.org/releases/mars/

I'm not fully aware of the differences, but the first contains much less
than the second.

Now I need an updatesite specific for 4.5.2, not containing anything
from 4.5.1 or 4.5.0.

For the first you can follow links from
eclipse.org → Downloads → Other builds → 4.5.2 →
http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/updates/4.5/R-4.5.2-201602121500

But how to find the concrete link (i.e. the timestamp) for the releases
site that contains all projects of the releasetrain? Opening
http://download.eclipse.org/releases/mars in browser does not show any
child elements.

I know there must be one, because I accidently found a link to an older
one 4.5.1:
http://download.eclipse.org/releases/mars/201510021000
but not for 4.5.2.

Cheers,
Hauke

To find out the contents form a p2 repository manually look at the p2.index, which describes where the contents and artifacts are described:

http://download.eclipse.org/releases/mars/p2.index

version=1
metadata.repository.factory.order=compositeContent.xml,\!
artifact.repository.factory.order=compositeArtifacts.xml,\!

then try:
http://download.eclipse.org/releases/mars/compositeContent.xml
or it is packaged in a jar:
http://download.eclipse.org/releases/mars/compositeContent.jar

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<?compositeMetadataRepository version='1.0.0'?>
<repository name='Eclipse Mars repository' type='org.eclipse.equinox.internal.p2.metadata.repository.CompositeMetadataRepository' version='1.0.0'>
    <properties size='3'>
        <property name='p2.timestamp' value='1313779613760'/>
        <property name='p2.atomic.composite.loading' value='true'/>
    </properties>
    <children size='4'>
        <child location='http://download.eclipse.org/technology/epp/packages/mars/'/>
        <child location='201506241002' />
        <child location='201510021000' />
        <child location='201602261000' />
    </children>    
</repository>
