Hi All,
Can I please know whether it's possible to override Profile properties
at runtime?
What I'm looking for is a way to override the bundle-pool location
used by the Profile to extract features and plugins during feature
installation.
In a previous thread, I learned that the bundle pool location
(/features, /plugins directories) is located by the
org.eclipse.equinox.p2.cache property value.
I gave this as a profile property when invoking p2-director. I'm also
using -roaming enabled for my application.
However during runtime, I see that the org.eclipse.equinox.p2.cache
property is initialized to
/dileepa/kernel/trunk/distribution/kernel/target/wso2carbon-core-4.1.0-SNAPSHOT/repository/components/WSO2CarbonProfile
This is not the place I specified p2.cache to point to. I want it to
be pointed to
/dileepa/kernel/trunk/distribution/kernel/target/wso2carbon-core-4.1.0-SNAPSHOT/repository/components(I
suspect with -roaming enabled, the profile-property value I set for
p2.cache has been modified internaly by P2)
As there is no direct method to override the p2.cache profile
property, I tried ;
profileRegistry.setProfileStateProperty(IProfileRegistry.SELF,
timeStamp, "org.eclipse.equinox.p2.cache",
System.getProperty("carbon.home") + File.separator + "repository" +
File.separator +"components");
But this was not successful and the features were still extracted at
repository/components/WSO2CarbonProfile directory and the p2
instructions to copy certain files during feature installation fail,
due to incorrect file-paths to source.
Then I learned that my change above using setProfileStateProperty() is
not useful at all since in p2.touchpoint.eclipse.util [1] uses;
profile.getProperty(IProfile.PROP_CACHE); and not profile.getPropertyState()
Can I please know a way to override the p2.cache property for my
running profile during runtime?
Thanks,
Dileepa
