Re: [p2-dev] New director application

[Terry Parker <tparker@xxxxxxxxxx>]

After further investigation, everything is fine.

org.eclipse.equinox.internal.p2.repository.ServiceTracker() is loading
the org.eclipse.ecf.internal.provider.filetransfer bundle.  The
problem was that I adapted the "director app" launch configuration,
which currently doesn't enable org.eclipse.ecf.provider.filetransfer.
Once I made sure the bundle was enabled in the launch configuration,
everything was fine.

This is really great.  I was able to provision a 3.4.1 release, add
some third party plugins on top of that, and then use the DirectorApp
to update org.eclipse.sdk.ide and org.eclipse.sdk.feature.group to
3.4.2, which I have never been able to do in a headless mode before.

Thanks Thomas!
