[cross-project-issues-dev] Do p2.mirrorsUrl=http://www.eclipse.org/downl

[Mickael Istria <mistria@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

I'm trying to find good metrics to get from https://dev.eclipse.org/committers/committertools/stats.php about general popularity of the Eclipse IDE (number of downloads of last released version, through package or updates).

If I set p2.mirrorsURL="http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/download.php?format=xml&amp;file=/releases/oxygen/201804111000" in my artifact.xml (without setting download stats), does each download of each artifact gets a hit in download stat? Or does the download stat hit only happen when using the web-based download service in browser?

If this counts, then is there a risk that a combination of
p2.mirrorsURL='http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/download.php?format=xml&amp;file=/releases/oxygen/201804111000'  and p2.statsURI='http://download.eclipse.org/stats/releases/oxygen' count the same download as 2 hits ?

Thanks in advance for your answers!
