Description Markus Kuppe CLA 2013-12-17 11:57:58 EST
bindex [1] allows to generate metadata for bndtools based on a p2 repository (or a bunch of bundles on the filesystem). The build thus could pretty easily generate a bndtools compatible repo for use outside of Eclipse.

<root> You: [58->48] @fhuberts Can you verify that http://t.co/uqX9RxQo0Q <download.ecf-project.org/repo/N-HEAD-sd…> is consumable by bndtools? /cc @nbartlett
<fhuberts> [5b->58] @lemmster @nbartlett Yep, no problem. With a shitload of bundles in it, also non-ECF bundles....

Noteworthy: "ECF now providers repository metadata to make its repositories directly consumable in bndtools"
