Re: [cross-project-issues-dev] How do I Generate p2 metadata w/ Category info from command-line??


If you're using composite repositories, you can just create a  child metadata repository that specifies the categories.  See this bug for an example.

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=277359

Then you don't have to worry about generating categories with every build.

[cross-project-issues-dev] How do I Generate p2 metadata w/        Category info from command-line??





Hi,

I thought I'd seen this topic before, but now cannot seem to find it.
I'm hoping someone out there can help. I'm trying to generate some
category info for our project P2 repositories with no luck.
I've tried just about every combination of parameters I can think of
with the metadata generator, and it generates the P2 fine, but no
category info.
I am building directly from ANT. I've tried having the site.url point to
a local file (not in repository) - no luck. I've also tried copying the
site file to the repos and using that location as the site url - again
no luck.
At this point I'm wondering if I'm using the right tool, or if the M6/M7
generator has a bug, or I'm missing something else big. Is anyone out
there manually generating categories for P2, if so what tools are you using?

Below is the latest metadata command-line I'm using, and the Site.xml file.
Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

-Eric
