Re: [cross-project-issues-dev] Provide SDK feature for RAP
Ralf and I talked a bit.  Summary, you need to use the p2 publisher to get all the new infrastructure (including things like the p2.inf support).

***  Note to all, if you are contributing to Galileo you should be using Galileo tooling to make your contribution.

Hi Thomas,

thanks for your analysis. Do you have a hint how those requirements can
be added to the metadata? I tried different combinations of command line
arguments, but with none of them "A.PDE" ended up in the content.xml. My
current method of creating metadata is the following:

java -Xmx512m -cp $ECLIPSE_LAUNCHER org.eclipse.core.launcher.Main \
      -application
org.eclipse.equinox.p2.metadata.generator.EclipseGenerator \
      -updateSite "$inputDir" \
      -metadataRepository "file://$inputDir" \
      -metadataRepositoryName "RAP Update Site" \
      -artifactRepository "file://$inputDir" \
      -artifactRepositoryName "RAP Artifacts" \
      -reusePack200Files \
      -noDefaultIUs

Java is 1.5.0_19, $ECLIPSE_LAUNCHER points to
org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_1.0.200.v20090513.jar from an Eclipse
3.5RC1 installation.

Thanks, Ralf

Hi Ralf,
A search for "A.PDE" in the content.xml of 
http://download.eclipse.org/rt/rap/1.2/runtime-update/content.jar gives no hits. 
So for some reason, the requirement is not added properly to your feature.

Thomas Hallgren

Hi,

including a p2.inf file in the feature as suggested does not prevent the
IDE to install this feature. I created this RAP runtime repository for
testing:

http://download.eclipse.org/rt/rap/1.2/runtime-update/

The RAP runtime *can* be installed into 3.5RC2 without any warning, and
after restarting the IDE is, of course, inoperable.

Any ideas?

Ralf

Hi Ralf,
I think that should do it. Give it a try.

Hi,

We'd like to provide an SDK feature for RAP as suggested in bug 275753.
If I understand Thomas Hallgren's comment on bug 276000 correctly, we
can now go ahead and include a feature with a requirement to
"A.PDE.Target.provisioning":

  https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=276000#c19

To do so, is it sufficient to include a file named "p2.inf" in the
feature with content like this:

---
requires.1.namespace=A.PDE.Target.provisioning
requires.1.name=<Anything>
requires.1.range=[0.0.0,0.0.0]
---

or are there any more steps needed?

Thanks,
Ralf
