[cross-project-issues-dev] new cbi shared license in buckminster build

[Henrik <hrr@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

the eTrice project used to refer to the org.eclipse.license feature contained in the platform.releng git repository.
But recently this feature was removed due to [1] and [2].
Projects have to consume this feature now from a new p2 update site or from the new git location [3] (as shown below).

I had some problems to get the eTrice build working again.
It seems that I had to replace the ".qualifier" by the explicit 4th segment of the version:

<feature
      id="org.eclipse.etrice.feature"
      label="%featureName"
      version="0.4.0.qualifier"
      provider-name="%providerName"
      plugin="org.eclipse.etrice.core.room.ui"
      license-feature="org.eclipse.license"
      license-feature-version="1.0.0.v20131003-1638">

In the Buckminster resource map the search path is

  <rm:searchPath name="eclipse.license">
    <rm:provider componentTypes="eclipse.feature" readerType="git">
      <rm:property key="git.remote.uri" value="http://git.eclipse.org/gitroot/cbi/org.eclipse.license.git"/>
      <rm:uri format="{0}/license,{1}">
        <bc:propertyRef key="workspace.root"/>
        <bc:propertyRef key="buckminster.component"/>
      </rm:uri>
    </rm:provider>
  </rm:searchPath>

Regards,
Henrik
