[equinox-dev] ECF version update for M5

[Scott Lewis <slewis@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

ECF had a milestone build last Friday 12/14, and it would be great to 
update the Equinox provisioning to use the latest from ECF 
filetransfer.  See below for project set changes (for 
org.eclipse.equinox.p2.releng) and http get URLs (for map/build files).  
My understanding is that DJ is making these changes for the prov work 
currently.

A couple of other items:

a) FYI, ECF bug 181544 [1] (use Platform level proxy settings) is 
resolved in this version and we are looking for testing help with 
various proxy configurations.  We will arrange for proxy testing that we 
have access to, but if others have proxy configurations and can/could 
run some test cases please let us know.

b) At appropriate point we should probably explore the use of the apache 
httpclient provider for http and https (rather than JRE UrlConnection).

c) We've created an scp provider based upon com.jcraft.jsch 0.1.31 that 
implements both download/retrieve and upload/send.  If that provider is 
desired/needed for p2 we can simply add it as needed.  The plugin src is 
available here [2].  The binary is included in ECF 2.0.0M4 here [4].

d) We've recently done a lot of simplification of the ECF Discovery API 
[4].  Further, we now have discovery API providers for SLP (service 
locator protocol RFC 2608), and zeroconf/bonjour/rendevous.  Either/both 
of these can/could be used for artifact and meta-data repository 
discovery (and/or update site discovery).

For more/other info about ECF 2.0.0M4 see the N&N [5].

Thanks,

Scott
