RE: [equinox-dev] Autostarting Bundles

Chris,

 

Re:  autostarting bundles…

Recently there was some posts re: using p2.inf to specify product/feature CU’s.  I tried to follow the information provided on the Equinox/p2/GeneratingCUs wiki.  I guess I was bleeding edge with this as well since Pascal suggested I try this week’s I-Build.  I have, and still no joy.

 

Have you tried using a product associated p2.inf to set the “markStarted” for bundles?

Chris,

FYI - I tried using the product def’n editor to set the bundles start levels.  I had a problem when using the “default” start level.  It set the entry in the config.ini to “@0”.  This caused an error when starting the server-side Eclipse environment.  Once I changed these to a specific start level (“@4”), everything did work.

BTW – I was surprised that bundles marked for started were defined via “osgi.bundles”, instead of setting CU’s to update the bundle.info.

You're on the bleeding edge a bit Dennis. I fixed that issue yesterday:
272361: don't write out 0 for start levels
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=272361

If you don't included simpleconfigurator in your product, everything will be on the osgi.bundles property. If you include simpleconfigurator, PDE should use it.

Let me know if we can help, we have had great success using product definitions to manage server side applications.

Cheers,
