Re: [p2-dev] Wrap SimpleArtifactRepository

[Pascal Rapicault <Pascal_Rapicault@xxxxxxxxxx>]

p2 does not have any explicit support to allow for the replacement of a repository.
The mechanisms that could be use for that are:
1) Replace the implementation of the artifact repository manager by setting a your own implementation in the IProvisioningAgent. This would have to be done for every instance of the agent that can be created
2) Remove the extension for the SimpleArtifactRepository from the extension registry by either using the equinox.transform bundle, or using the registry API
3) Add a mechanism to p2 artifact repository manager to control the look up order of the factories, thus allowing your instance to always be first used

---

I would like to have some code which monitors (some) calls made to the simple artifact repository.

My initial plan was to implement a class WrappedSimpleArtifactRepository which has a single constructor to which the p2 simple artifact repository is passed in. 

Then there would be a factory WrappedSimpleArtifactRepositoryFactory which creates or loads the simple artifact repository and then wraps it into the in WrappedSimpleArtifactRepository.

If I am not mistaken there is however no way to make WrappedSimpleArtifactRepositoryFactory be used instead of SimpleArtifactRepositoryFactory.?
If there is no way is the envisioned way to provide my own IArtifactRepositoryManager service which then can wrap the simple artifact repository? How to ensure that this is done early enough?

Does WrappedSimpleArtifactRepository have to implement equals and hashCode perhaps mirroring the implementation in AbstractArtifactRepository?

Thanks,
