Hi,

I have a .setup file that is configured to load plugins from 2 repositories of version 2020.12. However, when it is executed, the plugins have not version 2020.12 as expected; they have version 2022.12. Here is an extract of the .setup file:

<setup:Product xmi:version="2.0" xmlns:xmi="http://www.omg.org/XMI" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:setup="http://www.eclipse.org/oomph/setup/1.0" xmlns:setup.p2="http://www.eclipse.org/oomph/setup/p2/1.0" name="eclipse-centralized-oomph" label="eclipse-centralized-oomph-2020-12-v3.0">

Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

Which two plugins? You can always restrict the versions via ranges to exactly the versions you want...

I wanted the Eclipse plugins to come from:

<repository url="http://download.eclipse.org/technology/epp/packages/2020-12/202012101200"/>
<repository url="http://download.eclipse.org/releases/2020-12/202012161000">

I'm talking about all the Eclipse plugins from a vanilla install. Such as:

<requirement name="epp.package.jee" versionRange="[4.18.0,5.0.0)"/>
<requirement name="org.eclipse.platform.feature.group" versionRange="[4.18.0,5.0.0)"/>
<requirement name="org.eclipse.rcp.feature.group" versionRange="[4.18.0,5.0.0)"/>

I created this P2Task by copying/pasting it from what I found in a vanilla install. In my opinion I took a snapshot of that vanilla install that I did 2 years ago, with version 2020.12.

Restricting versions: I understand. But this is tedious to take each plugin by hand and adjust it. I was hoping that my copy/paste approach would work, based on the fact that I use repos that only contain 2020.12 versions. But somehow, OOMPH uses other repo(s) instead of the ones I specified.

An update site can not only be a composite that compose other sites, an update site can also specify reference to other sites. If I start here:

https://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/photon/development/updates/compositeContent.xml

I see it composes this site:

https://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/targetplatforms/jbosstoolstarget/4.26.0.Final-SNAPSHOT/REPO/

And for that site I can see in https://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/targetplatforms/jbosstoolstarget/4.26.0.Final-SNAPSHOT/REPO/content.jar all these referenced repositories:
  <references size='14'>

  </references>
So yes, if the requirements you are trying to install are satisfied by IUs coming from https://download.eclipse.org/releases/2022-12/ (which is indirectly specified by the sites that you have specified) those will be installed. That is to be expected.

Thanks for the explanation!
So indeed the only solution would be to take by hand all the features and modify the "max" version, right?

Yes, given you have limited control over the repositories that make many things visible, the only alternative is to restrict the solution via requirements that constrain the resolution.
