Hi,

I have my own custom eclipse IDE available as a P2 composite repository, this has many components like
ecl_platform
ecl_cdt
ecl_sphinx
... and so many others

So I have updated the org.eclipse.products.setup file to list my IDE pointing to the P2 repository (I would have even created user setup file for the same)
index.php/fa/38724/0/

now my IDE is listed in the product list of oomph installer dialog.
index.php/fa/38722/0/

i have selected this product and installation finished without any errors, but many of the plug-ins listed in my repository are missing in the installation, hence i could not launch my IDE.
for e.g., org.eclipse.equinox.launcher plug-in is missing.


Could you pls help ? Thank you

I don't see that your p2 director task has any requirements. I only see a repository, but if you don't specify what to install from that repository then nothing will be installed. You should look closely how the existing products specify their p2 directory tasks.

Yes. . after adding the requirement, now it works, i have tried for org.eclipse.platform

what can be done if I want to install all the feature groups from this repository ?
because there are more than 100 feature groups in my repo and I want all of them to be installed.
Should I find all these feature groups and put into the setup as requirements manually ?

Use the Repository Explorer to view the contents of the repository and then drag and drop all the features onto the p2 task:

Thanks that worked!

another issue:
I have two repositories e.g., A, B
A has features 1,2
B has features 1,2,3
I wanted to configure P2 Director task such that features 1,2 are considered from A and feature 3 is considered from B
How can I configure this ?
Note: All these features from both repos are compatible

You can control what's installed either by controlling which repositories are available or by restricting the version range of a requirement such that it is forced to pick something more specific from whatever repositories are available.

A p2 Director task has an advanced property, "Merge Disabled" which is false by default. The only other possibility is to do two separate p2 tasks instead of a single merged p2 task. But I've never tried that in the installer...

I have created two separate P2 director tasks and set "Merge Disabled" to true and installation worked as expected.

index.php/fa/38751/0/

Now the issue is configuration/org.eclipse.equinox.simpleconfigurator/bundles.info is NOT created.

This file gets created when I get all my requirements from
http://download.eclipse.org/releases/photon/201806271001
instead of my repository

so wanted to know in general, what is responsible for creating bundles.info or how this bundles.info is created ?

Perhaps its important to install the product first before installing additional features. So maybe just reordering the p2 Director tasks will do the trick.
