Hi Shenol,

Can you please advise how to pass a source repository to the
categoryPublisher? The current syntax documented is as the following. It
doesn't contain a source repository.

   -console -consolelog -application
org.eclipse.equinox.p2.publisher.CategoryPublisher
   -metadataRepository file:/<repo location>/repository
   -categoryDefinition file:/home/irbull/workspaces/p2/mail/category.xml
   -categoryQualifier
   -compress


Best Regards

Samuel Wu

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:

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
