Download them to where? You can use Help>Install New Software to add them to your install. You can use File>New>Other...>Target Definition to create a PDE Target Definition. You can add your eclipse install, and p2 software sites, to create a definition you can compile against.

You can also use p2 mirror to simply make the p2 repo local.

Sorry. My question is not clear.
I mean I have a feature project need to build. It depends on some other features or plugins from remote site. How can I use p2 to download all these dependencies to a local folder with command line.

As part of your customTargets.xml, you can use p2.mirror ant task to mirror p2 repos into your repoBaseLocation (which is then converted and used in your build).

See the postSetup target in http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/viewvc.cgi/e4/releng/org.eclipse.e4.builder/builder/general/customTargets.xml?view=co&content-type=text%2Fplain

p2.mirror need to know ius' id. But I don't know exactly which repository contains the needed feature. For example, my project need feature A and B，and there are 3 remote repositories R1,R2,R3. I only know A or B can be fined from one of R1,R2,R3, and I need to use p2 to search A and B from all there 3 repositories and download them.
