Hello Samuel,

I think that the features and bundles publisher does not take into account the 
site.xml, but the update site publisher does.  As it takes arguments similar to 
the features and bundles publisher, you can give it a try.
The other way is to run the category publisher after publishing the features 
and bundles with a proper category.xml, pointing to the already created 
metadata repository.

Hello Shenol,
I'm running a PDE headless build and want to publish the build result. I tried 
to add the following ant task to my build and it did publish the build result. 
But the problem is that the features are publish without a category. I manually 
updated the site.xml and created the category for the new features, but I 
didn't see the newly added category when I tried to install from the repository.
<p2.publish.featuresAndBundles
metadataRepository="file:/X:/build/website/tpftoolkit/nls36"
artifactRepository="file:/X:/build/website/tpftoolkit/nls36"
publishArtifacts="true"
compress="true"
append="true"
source="${buildDirectory}/buildRepo"/>

Also looked at the headless Category Publisher, but couldn't figure out how to 
define the source directory yet.

Best Regards

Samuel Wu

Hello Samuel,

How are you building these features ? Publisher applications can be run with an 
option "-append" which will add the new features to an already existing 
repository. Some details here:

Subject: [p2-dev] How to add a new feature to an existing repository?

Hello there,
Our product has a repository to ship the optional features. We've already 
shipped a few features and now we want to ship a few more. But when the new 
features are built, the content.xml and artifacts.xml only contains the newly 
built features. And the manual merge of the files with the old one is next to 
impossible. I wonder how to add the new features to the existing repository. 
Thanks a lot.

Best Regards
