RE: [platform-update-dev] install/update site

Please note that you CAN use filters as long as they are exactly what you
want. For example, if your plug-in only works on Windows, you should use os
="win32" ws="win32" attribute on a feature to prevent it from showing on
Linux, for example. Plug-ins that are portable should not have these
attributes.

Thanks, removing the nl/os/ws filters helped. Now, I can see the features.

Make sure that you didn't use nl/os/ws filters because if the features are
specified to work on the systems that do not match the system where Updates
view is running, they will be filtered out by default.

I did read the design doc, it was helpful in understanding about the
site.xml and the dir structure. I believe I do have the right site.xml and
the dir structure. But I am not able to understand why it is not showing me
the feature list in the Feature updates view. What else should I do after
having the dirs and the files in there ?

thanks,
-Anou

Anou,

A good start would be the design document on the Update resource page:

http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/index.cgi/%7Echeckout%7E/platform-update-home


/doc/eclipse_update_packaging.html

You will find information about site and feature manifest formats, and
hopefully solve your problem.

Hi,

      I am trying to create an install/update site and I find all the
      document that explains how to do that seems to be not match the 2.0
      version framework. I looked at the example site

http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/index.cgi/org.eclipse.update.examples/#dirlis


t
        and tried to create the dirs similar to that. I had some success in
      making the site available to look from eclipse but I am still not
      able to see the update versions available.

      Why am I not able to see the versions ? I have the site.xml -- which
      points the feature jars and the plugin jars, what else am I missing ?
      Is the install also treated as update ? I do see an install dir, but
      how do I proceed with that one.

      Any place where I can get some more recent doc that explains the dir
      structure and what all needs to be there for install and update ?

      thanks,
      -Anou
