Re: [jetty-users] Update site for jetty 7.2.0 plugins?

[Hugues Malphettes <hmalphettes@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Martin,

The 7.2.0 update site is here: http://download.eclipse.org/jetty/updates/jetty-bundles-7.x/

We have not worked on 8.0 yet: servlet-3.0 and the next generation of jsp related jars require more work to support them in OSGi.

Please note that we are still figuring out how to set everything directly from PDE.

PDE Target Provisioning covers the installation of features and bundles but not the binary files where we place the jetty configuration files.

Our first attempt to workaround this was to provide some PDE plugins and create a default jetty.home folder using those.

At this point we think it is too confusing to keep track of another set of tooling plugins: there is already WTP and for OSGi we should focus our efforts on PDE.

So the development of tje jetty-osgi tooling has gone dormant and we are going to clarify this.

The recommended workaround consists of downloading an installation of the web starterkit and using that as the Target Platform in PDE.

This is what is documented here http://wiki.eclipse.org/Jetty/Tutorial/Jetty-OSGi_SDK

At Intalio we use p2 from the command-line to install the complete product as an alternative to downloading the zip.

Unfortunately the installation of a product from a p2 update-site is not supported by PDE... for various reasons.

Another way to tackle this would be to make sure that the jetty configuration embedded in the jetty bundles will work out of the box once the jetty bundles have been installed as a Target Platform.

Here is a bug to keep track of this: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=329634

Best,

Hugues

Hi,
Is there an update site to install jetty 7.2.0 and 8.0.0 directly into eclipse through the update manager?
