[pde-build-dev] Subversion Fetch Factory

["Chris Vines" <cvines@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have been using PDE for some time now, building our features using a modified version of PDE build 3.1 with a subversion ant task and custom fetch generator.

I have just tried to get this to work using Eclipse 3.2 pde by implementing a fetch Factory and have got a problem.

I created a plugin containing the subversion ant tasks (which works OK) and a new FetchFactory with an ID of SVN.
I checked out the latest org.eclipse.releng.basebuilder and deployed the plugin into it.
The map file was modified to include the repositoreyType of SVN.

I get the following when I kick off the build.

org.eclipse.pde.build\scripts\genericTargets.xml:41: org.eclipse.core.runtime.CoreException: The element X.feature ca not be fetched because the necessary factory (<missing argument>) is not available.

If I change the map file to have an invalid repositoryType it tries to use the CVS FetchFactory and I get a partial Fetch.xml created. So i guess the SVN fetch factory is being picked up but then it is not being used for some reason.

Has anyone had any similar issues creating a FetchFactory?
