Hello,

Two days spent playing with Oomph, and we have finally a setup file working correctly :)

Two small questions :
1- I have followed the FAQ to add my personal setup file to OOMPH installer : I have put my setup file at the root of the unzip OOMPH installation. It is not working, the new setup file is not showing itself when I relaunch the loader. What is the best way to add it?

2- I would like to personalise the icon shown in OOMPH installer for my product. Is there a way to override the value define directly in OOMPH setup file?

Thanks for your help, and thanks for the tools provided. Keep the good work ;)

Tony

For 1 I'm not sure exactly what you're trying to achieve. You could host things in your own catalog as described in https://wiki.eclipse.org/Eclipse_Oomph_Authoring#Hosting_your_own_index_.2F_catalogs (and add the redirection for that in the eclipse-inst.ini) or of course you can add a product to the user product catalog on the Products page or add a project to the user extension of one of the existing project catalogs on the Projects page (and that addition is remembered from one launch to the next. For 2, yes, you can add a branding annotation like this one for the "Eclipse IDE for Java Developers" product:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<base:Annotation
    xmi:version="2.0"
    xmlns:xmi="http://www.omg.org/XMI"
    xmlns:base="http://www.eclipse.org/oomph/base/1.0"
    source="http://www.eclipse.org/oomph/setup/BrandingInfo">
  <detail key="imageURI">

  </detail>
</base:Annotation>
