Hi Eric,

 

AFAIK the providerName must be "in sync" with the icon. If we have ONE icon for all of DSDP, we also need ONE providerName. For instance,

 

   "Eclipse DSDP Project" or

   "Eclipse.org - DSDP" or

   "Eclipse.org - Device Software Development Platform"

 

I'm not sure if discussion concluded on any recommended pattern for the providerName.

 

Cheers,

Subject: [dsdp-pmc] plugin.properties providerName

Several months ago, there was a discussion on cross-platform about putting project-specific names in the plugin.properties and feature.properties providerName fields. I created a bug for TmL to do this work.

 

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=257585

 

It doesn't appear that many projects are adopting this strategy. Are other DSDP projects, especially those on the Galileo release train, planning to make these changes? If so, what format are you planning to use?

 

Thanks
