Thanks Jan (and
Nick),
This reminds me of another
question
... mostly just curious. I seem to recall a bug to allow Tycho's
p2 cache
to be specified independently of the local maven artifacts cache
-- I *think*
so they could be "cleaned" (deleted) independently. Or did I
just dream that? I could not find any bug on this in Tycho,
searching for
"p2 cache". I am just curious if this is possible. I do not have
a concrete use-case in mind, except that in some builds, I could
imagine
the maven artifact cache would be more "stable" than the p2
cache.
The p2 cache is in $M2_REPO/.cache/tycho. You can
delete this folder independently of other ones and it will give
you the expected result (re-computation and downloads of p2
artifacts from remote sites only), at least it was doing that last
time I tried a while ago ;)
Maybe you can also only delete the
$M2_REPO/.cache/tycho/p2-repository-metadata folder. My
expectation if you do so is it wouldn't take into account cache at
all during resolution, but might take advantage of local
downloaded binaries to avoid re-downloading them. However, I never
tried it so I cannot say whether may assumption is right or not,
you'll have to try.
