Re: [equinox-dev] [prov] Some provisioning changes released


Hmm. I picked up your changes and Pascal's. I regenerated the metadata. When I attempt to install (an SDK) I get  a number of InvalidSyntaxExceptions in FilterImpl$Parser:

FilterImpl$Parser.parse_attr() line: 1627        

                        if (length == 0) {
                                throw new InvalidSyntaxException(NLS.bind(Msg.FILTER_MISSING_ATTR, String.valueOf(pos)), filterstring);
                        }

when,  for example, the filter string is


   (&((&(osgi.os=win32)(osgi.ws=win32)(osgi.arch=x86))) ((version>=3.3.0.v3339)))

and the message is

        Missing attr at character 3

and the iu being processed is

         org.eclipse.rcp.featureIU 3.3.0.v20070405a-8w8eDpEbsN3KkG_gP8JZLGb

similar for platform.featureIU with filter string

        (&((&(osgi.ws=win32))) ((version>=3.2.100.I20070319-0010)))

The problem appears to be with the handling of the compound conjunction. A version filter only or an _expression_ like

        (&(osgi.os=hpux)(osgi.arch=ia64_32))

parses without exception.

Bugzilla reveals 3 bugs matching FilterImpl, none for this behavior. Is it a bug or is this type of _expression_ not supported.

[equinox-dev] [prov] Some provisioning changes released






I released a couple of small to the provisioning incubator:


- New local metadata repository. If you create a metadata repository pointing to a local file system directory, it will traverse the directory in search of "content.xml" files, and aggregate them together. This makes it easier to cobble together metadata from various places without creating multiple metadata repositories


- To allow for experimenting with groups that define filters, I added some bits to the feature parser so that features can define extra filters on their imports and includes. If you run a feature with filters through the metadata generatory, they get turned into filters on the RequiredCapability. This was simpler than hand-crafting filter-enabled groups manually.
