Generate a flat but optimized repository [message #677769] Thu, 09 June 2011 10:46 Go to next message

I'm using the p2-publisher application to publish a p2-repository. The
call to the publisher looks like:
java -jar $launcher \
-application org.eclipse.equinox.p2.
publisher.FeaturesAndBundlesPublisher \
-metadataRepository myRepositoryDir \
-artifactRepository myRepositoryDir \
-source mySource \
-reusePackedFiles \
-compress \
-publishArtifacts

The generated p2-repository contains pack200 artifacts located next to
the jarred artifacts but the metadata in artifacts.jar doesn't have any
information about the packed artifacts. When I execute the
"org.eclipse.equinox.p2.artifact.optimizers.pack200optimizer"
application after the publisher application then a ".blobstore" folder
is crate next to the "plugins" folder of my p2-repository and this
folder contains also pack200 artifacts and they are referenced in the
artifacts metadata. I don't need the ".blobstore" folder. I want the
optimized artifacts next to my jarred artifacts. What is the right way
to generate such a repository?

Thanks and Regards,
Beyhan

Using "-reusePack200Files" instead "-reusePackedFiles" solved my
problem. This seems to be a publisher bug. According
to the p2-documentation both parameters should have the same effect. I
created one https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=349069.

Cheers,
Beyhan
