[jira] [Comment Edited] (UIMA-2475) eclipse p2 update site instead of old-style update site

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/UIMA-2475?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13472489#comment-13472489 ]

Here's what worked for me:

(1) Fix a bug in the uimaj-eclipse-update-site/pom.xml

{code}
-              <outputDirectory>${project.build.directory}/work/plugins</outputDirectory>
+              <outputDirectory>${project.build.directory}/eclipse-update-site/plugins</outputDirectory>
{code}

(2) Run {{mvn process-sources}} to copy over features and plugins to {{target/eclipse-update-site}}. (For some reason, the plugins directory has svn:ignore set, so it's empty. Seems like there might be a bug where you're putting both features and plugins in the features directory?)


(3) Run the FeaturesAndBundlesPublisher to publish the features and bundles and add the content.xml and artifacts.xml

{code}
$ java -jar /.../eclipse/plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_*.jar \
   -application org.eclipse.equinox.p2.publisher.FeaturesAndBundlesPublisher \
   -metadataRepository file:/.../uimaj-eclipse-update-site/ \
   -artifactRepository file:/.../uimaj-eclipse-update-site/ \
   -source /.../uimaj-eclipse-update-site/target/eclipse-update-site \
   -publishArtifacts
{code}

I am then able to use {{file:/.../uimaj-eclipse-update-site/}} as a p2 repository (e.g. Tycho can resolve dependencies from here).

> The UIMA Eclipse update site (www.apache.org/dist/uima/eclipse-update-site) is an Eclipse 3.3 (or older) update site. Since Eclipse 3.4, the recommended update site layout is p2:
> http://wiki.eclipse.org/Equinox_p2_Getting_Started_for_Releng#Why_should_I_make_changes_to_adopt_p2.3F
> I've been bitten by this update site issue because old-style update sites make it impossible to resolve build-time dependencies when building Eclipse plugins:
> https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=380438#c3
> Could the UIMA update site be modernized to the p2 layout?
