Thanks!

For Windows, the self-extracting installer is created like this:

https://wiki.eclipse.org/Eclipse_Oomph_Authoring#How_to_extract_the_constituent_parts_that_comprise_the_Windows_self-extracting_installer_executable

Creating a signed dmg is a service provided by the Eclipse Foundation that we can invoke like this:

curl -o eclipse-inst-mac64.dmg --write-out '%{http_code}\n' -F sign=true -F source=@eclipse-inst-mac64.tar.gz http://build.eclipse.org:31338/dmg-packager

You can find Oomph's build here:

https://ci.eclipse.org/oomph/

This build repackages the results of an existing build to produce so-called filtered installers:

curl -o eclipse-inst-mac64.dmg --write-out '%{http_code}\n' -F sign=true -F source=@eclipse-inst-mac64.tar.gz http://build.eclipse.org:31338/dmg-packager

The build steps should give you more information:

https://ci.eclipse.org/oomph/job/build-filtered-installer/configure

Some of the shell scripts used are only visible on build.eclipse.org, so you can only see them if you have access rights.
