Hello, I've converted the first batch of 3.6.2 archives from http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/, namely:
eclipse-3.6.2-delta-pack.zip eclipse-modeling-helios-SR2-incubation-linux-gtk.tar.gz eclipse-rcp-helios-SR2-linux-gtk.tar.gz eclipse-reporting-helios-SR2-linux-gtk.tar.gz eclipse-SDK-3.6.2-win32.zip org.eclipse.rcp-3.6.2.zip org.eclipse.rcp.source-3.6.2.zip That's 1074 artifacts, 283 with sources. You can find the result in /home/nexus/workspace/org.eclipse.dash.m4e.tools/tmp/m2repo/ Due to a bug, the repo is still polluted with non-Eclipse artifacts. During the conversion, I had warnings like this one: WARNING ../tmp/m2repo/org/junit/org.junit/3.8.2/org.junit-3.8.2.jar differs from ../tmp/eclipse-SDK-3.6.2-win32_home/m2repo/org/junit/org.junit/3.8.2/org.junit-3.8.2.jar A quick search found four archives which contain this file: ./eclipse-reporting-helios-SR2-linux-gtk_home/m2repo/org/junit/org.junit/3.8.2/org.junit-3.8.2.jar ./eclipse-modeling-helios-SR2-incubation-linux-gtk_home/m2repo/org/junit/org.junit/3.8.2/org.junit-3.8.2.jar ./eclipse-rcp-helios-SR2-linux-gtk_home/m2repo/org/junit/org.junit/3.8.2/org.junit-3.8.2.jar ./eclipse-SDK-3.6.2-win32_home/m2repo/org/junit/org.junit/3.8.2/org.junit-3.8.2.jar Comparing the first two shows that JUnit 3.8.2 from eclipse-reporting-helios-SR2-linux-gtk.tar.gz and eclipse-modeling-helios-SR2-incubation-linux-gtk.tar.gz have differences near the beginning. In the file, it looks like this: 948 Defl:N 517 46% 03-18-11 17:09 7ce61aa8 META-INF/MANIFEST.MF 948 Defl:N 517 46% 03-18-11 17:15 7ce61aa8 META-INF/MANIFEST.MF So you can see the file date is different. How can that happen? I understand that Eclipse recreates the MANIFEST.MF when the JAR is signed but why are many plug-ins signed several times? Background: To make sure everything is ok, I check that all files are identical when I merge repositories. Only, they aren't... Regards, -- Aaron "Optimizer" Digulla a.k.a.
