Hi Ed

The confusion between EMF (container project) and EMF (core) has now been in place for so long that it may be it now easy to fix.

I'm not sure why the length of time makes it easier to fix...

e.g. Is there really any point in providing http://download.eclipse.org/modeling/emf/updates

No, it contains antiquated versions.

whose most recent contributions are from 2009 (EMF 2.5)?

Yes, that's quite old. :-P

when http://download.eclipse.org/modeling/emf/emf/updates (EMF 2.7...) was surely intended?

Yes, though that seems not to be maintained so well either because 2.12 is not composed.

Where did EMF 2.6 go to ?

http://download.eclipse.org/modeling/emf/emf/updates/2.6  though I assume your point is it's not composed in any nice composite.

Perhaps P2 repos should be archived in the same way as downloads. i.e.

http://archive.eclipse.org/modeling/emf/emf/updates

It seems to me anyone using very old versions can use the version-specific repository...

might be an aggregate of all EMF updates, whereas

http://download.eclipse.org/modeling/emf/emf/updates

might be only the last 3 SimRel's thereby reducing the pressure on OOMPH etc.
All these composite are slow to use (involve many direct accesses to the Eclipse server) so in general downstream clients are best off to use a more specific update site.

For legacy consistency, http://archive.eclipse.org/modeling/emf/updates could be all EMF contained projects.
At this point moving it will just break people using it, though I doubt anyone is using it...

Konstantin,

Using https://wiki.eclipse.org/Eclipse_Oomph_Authoring#How_to_find_a_P2_repository_at_Eclipse_using_the_Repository_Explorer you can locate http://download.eclipse.org/modeling/emf/emf/updates/2.12

I see that 2.12 final release now appears on the download page, but it’s not included in the updates URL, nor is there an emf/updates/2.12 repository.

 

http://download.eclipse.org/modeling/emf/emf/updates/compositeContent.xml

 

We are working on updating our build to use final Neon dependencies and EMF is the last one we are waiting on. 😊

 

Thanks,
