Hi,

Can anyone else confirm this:

Having installed M6, and had difficulty with p2, I've followed the
instructions at http://wiki.eclipse.org/Equinox_p2_Removal and started
eclipse with -clean (for good measure).

I can now install features from update sites as I could with previous M
builds, but, when I want to set my target platform, I'm not getting the
same list of plugins listed as being present in eclipse/plugins.

Instead, the options listed are only those plugins that are packaged as
a jar. Old-style folders are ignored. In my case, this means that the
AspectJ runtime cannot be resolved.

The same workspace accessed via 3.4M4 shows many more plugins.

Cheers,

Neale

How are you installing things to the folder you're pointing to as your
target platform?

That may be the same issue.

Certainly seems a complicated set of use cases to get to grips with, for
p2, but I'm not talking about p2. What I'm seeing is a regression: that
with p2 removed, I don't get the same behaviour as in the previous
M-build (in my case M4, as I didn't grab M5).

I'll open a but, as there's clearly something not right with PDE on this
one.

Hope you're not doing too many late nights on this... p2 is a big bold step!

Cheers,

Neale
