Re: [p2-dev] Categories

I would be very surprised if 3.4.x did not show the feature in the "Name" view for a feature marked with group=true.
Can you double check that you were using the correct repo?

It would be expected in 3.4 that the feature would not show up in any view if the group property were not set to true.

My case here is that the top level IU in the repository is a feature. I
think I found the reason why it's not showing up. A feature generated
using 3.4.x contains this:

 <provided namespace="org.eclipse.equinox.p2.eclipse.type"
name="feature" version="1.0.0"/>

whereas a feature generated with 3.5 instead has this:

 <property name='org.eclipse.equinox.p2.type.group' value='true'/>

Apparently the 3.5 only reacts to the latter only. The 3.4.x doesn't
seem to react to any of them though. Not unless there is a category
above. Do you still want that as a bug?

Regards,
Thomas Hallgren
