I'm working on a pull request for an oomph buildship import setup task (see https://github.com/eclipse/buildship/pull/892 ).

Whats missing right now is the enablement annotation. Buildship has eclipse version specific update sites (https://download.eclipse.org/buildship/updates/) . I'm not sure if it is ok to just plug in the e411 update site into the enablement annotations or if that will mess stuff up.

Is there maybe an option to use an eclipse version specific variable in the enablement annotation?

Likely it would be better if the update site that contains your task would be a composite so that you can update the composite to point at a new buildship update site when appropriate without changing the model itself.

In this case that would probably be a composite that always points to the latest eclipse version specific update site.

I have very little knowledge of EMF so I was hoping there might be a built in replacement function during generation that I could use to fill in the matching update site URL for the eclipse version buildship is building against.

No, you'd have to edit the *.ecore file to change the value and regenerate. And of course the all-shipped plugins will have the old value so really best you point at a stable permanent composite location so you can change it dynamically at any time.

Thanks for the help, we'll add a composite update site and point the enablement annotation at it.
