Re: [p2-dev] Documentation and P2 in another OSGi framework implementati

[Pascal Rapicault <Pascal_Rapicault@xxxxxxxxxx>]

1. I'll be working on some of this doc as part of the tutorial that I'll be giving at eclipse con. The slides will be made available. If in the meantime if you have specific question please ask here.

2. p2 should be able to run on other frameworks, however I think we have a few ties with equinox in a few places of our code.
As for provisioning other frameworks, it is something that p2 is designed to address through the org.eclipse.equinox.frameworkadmin abstraction (http://wiki.eclipse.org/Equinox_FrameworkAdmin this doc may be slightly out of sync) but we have not pushed this aspect forward for lack of time and need.

Hi guys,

I have some questions related to P2:

1. I was searching for detailed documentation about P2 but seems like
I'm not able to find to much about. What I'm interesting in is about
what is the purpose of each P2 bundle, description of the main
concepts, description of services provided/consumed (required) by P2,
a getting started guide for using P2 from java (not command line),
examples, minim set of bundles required by P2 to be used, ...
So my question: is such a documentation available? If yes, can you
please point me to it?

2. Is P2 meant to be able to run within other OSGi framework
implementation beside Equinox? Or are there such plans for the future?
