| [p2-dev] Spoofing P2 profile in shared installations |
Hello P2 developers, I am trying to come up with a proof of concept that will: (a) assemble shared Eclipse installation from RPMs (b) have working P2 for regular users. a is easy, b is not, but to get it working I'm trying to apply the approach described in http://git.eclipse.org/c/equinox/rt.equinox.incubator.git/tree/p2/bundles/org.eclipse.equinox.p2.afterthefact/src/org/eclipse/equinox/internal/p2/afterthefact/Install.java So, first of all, I have modified the SimpleProfileRegistry#getProfile and forced it to create a fake profile from the list of installed bundles each time when no profile is found (http://fpaste.org/C2Gg/). It worked to some extend - a profile in the user configuration is written down properly, but the bundles.info (actually the whole simpleconfigurator folder) is missing. So it looks like I am able to fake profiles, but without a true connection to the OSGI. My question is: what have I actually missed? How can I make P2 to actually use this new profile and write down the bundles.info in the user home directory? Kind regards, -- Krzysztof Daniel <kdaniel@xxxxxxxxxx> Red Hat
