Hello,

I am looking for information on the CategoryPublisher when run at the
command prompt. Specifically, what I should be expecting to see when the
publisher runs correctly.

As it is now, I am able to invoke the CategoryPublisher but I see no
feedback as to it's success or failure nor do I know what to look for to
see that the process has modified what it is expected to.

Some background:
We have ANT tasks set up for an automated build of the feature and it's
required plugins. We want to add a quick command line call to categorize
the repository.
The call being issued is:
c:\eclipse\Eclipse.exe -application
org.eclipse.equinox.p2.publisher.CategoryPublisher -metadataRepository
C:\...\..\...\buildRepo -categoryDefinition
file:C:\...\...\...\...\...\category.xml

Where
C:\...\..\...\buildRepo points to the folder containing the features and
plugins folders who then contain the jar'd feature and plugins.
and C:\...\...\...\...\...\category.xml points to the category.xml file
created in Eclipse(Indigo SR2)

I have tried pointing -metadataRepository to the un-jar'd features and
plugins but see no files modified.

It could be that I am not issuing the call correctly (not pointing to the
right file locations) but what concerns me the most is there is no feedback
on what the process is having trouble or success with. -console,
-consolelog does not seem to have any impact on getting output from the
process.

Thanks in advance,
Pat.
