Re: [p2-dev] The metadata.genertor bundle

[Andrew Niefer <aniefer@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Part of the changes in PDE/Build in
the api branch is a change off of the metadata generator for 3.4 style
builds.
This is done by changing the ant task
being invoked to one provided by build instead of the metadata generator.

This still needs more testing, after
the merge, Kim will set up a releng base builder using the new stuff and
we see how things work in releng.

Yes, it's being maintained and we'll likely need to merge it back. We had
a goal of completely removing all references to it in the SDK but I'm not
sure if we've completed that - I recall some usage in PDE build I think.
Even then, we need to decide if we want to keep at least the command line
app for compatibility, since that was the only documented way to produce
p2 repositories in Eclipse 3.4 and many were using it for that purpose.
I don't think that will get sorted out in the next week so we'll need to
keep it for the time being.

Hi,
Do we still maintain the o.e.e.p2.metadata.generator bundle? I.e. do we
plan to merge it back?
