[cross-project-issues-dev] tooling for project and bundle-level dependen

[Scott Lewis <slewis@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Question:

Is there any tooling specifically for analyzing the project and 
bundle-level dependencies for a given epp package?

For example, given a particular released version of Eclipse IDE for 
Committers package, is there an analysis/report that will include 
project-level and bundle-level dependencies...e.g. for Committers package:

Eclipse Platform

    m2e

    git

    mylyn

    etcd...

For each project above...

    bundle1,   version (opt: exported versions)

    bundle2,  version

    etc...

For each bundle...

    bundle1 dependencies:  (bundle, packages, versions, optional/not)

    etc2

I understand that this might only be possible at runtime because of the 
OSGi wiring/resolver

And it would be nice if filters could be applied...e.g. bundle symbolic 
name filters like org.apache.*

At one time PDE had *some* of the above, and I think that bndtools has 
some of the above, but I thought that perhaps the simrel tooling 
included something closer for (e.g.) security/legal requirements.

Thanksinadvance,

Scott
