Description Kevin McGuire CLA 2008-11-24 15:50:07 EST 
http://wiki.eclipse.org/E4/Running_the_demos - "e4 Photo Demo"

We're missing EMF
:pserver:anonymous@dev.eclipse.org:/cvsroot/modeling
  org.eclipse.emf.common
  org.eclipse.emf.databinding
  org.eclipse.emf.ecore
  org.eclipse.emf.ecore.xmi

Should add to psf files and instructions.

I'll just note that we should probably create a new run-the-demo psf.

We need 3 (in the end, anyway) PSFs for us to work (develop).  The UI, the UI-tests, and the UI-examples (demos).  For development, we expect to have EMF installed in our eclipse but not in our workspace.

So maybe a 4th PSF, "run-the-photo-demo" if you want to add EMF from HEAD, but we don't want to be working with EMF from HEAD but with EMF from Ganymede (2.4.1, I believe).

Yeah its a good point. I couldn't decide if we should say to load the projects or to install the features because it depends on what you're doing.  It happens that we can't express loading of features in a psf file so thought tire kicker demo should load the projects (plus also it doesn't change someone's install).  But then you don't get the nice xmi editor.

I wonder if there's some p2 way of automating install of a particular feature? (e.g. via link someone clicks on).

Steps are clearer now.
