I'll probably expose some
ignorance here, but I'm having some
problems using the new P2 repositories. Big surprise. Here's what
I do:
I go to the recently generated M6 download page.
It tells me I should be using the P2 repositories instead of the zip
files I've used for several years now.
I'm not sure what that means. :-) I guess I'm supposed to unzip
them and see what happens?
I unzip all the prereq zip files into an eclipse folder. I unzip the 3
zipped P2 repositories into separate folders. (Do I need to unzip
them? Not sure.)
Anyway, I add a new Target Workspace in my host workspace,
pointing to the newly unzipped eclipse directory. Then I add 3
Software Sites, one for each of the new P2 directories from the
P2 zip files. When using the wizard to add a Software Site, I'm not
sure which content to add. The WST repository has two options -
I guess I only need the "SDK" option(?). I'm not sure what I'm
supposed to do with the "Project Provided Components" option in
the JST repository.
Once I add all this content, I have a number of problems listed in the
Edit Target Definition dialog:
Under the WST
repository:
Cannot satisfy
dependency:
Cannot satisfy dependency:
Missing
requirement: Eclipse _javascript_ Development Tools...
Software being
installed: Eclipse _javascript_ Development Tools...
Under the JST
repository:
Cannot satisfy dependency:
Missing

Software being

MyFaces Trinidad Tag Support (Optional)...
Under the Dali repository:
Cannot satisfy dependency:
Missing
requirement: Dali Java Persistence Tools...
Software being
installed: Dali
Java Persistence Tools...
Compiling against this target workspace results in lots of unresolved
bundles.
Does any of this make sense? Can anyone help me fix these problems?
Thanks.
Brian
