RE: [p2-dev] Using P2 within releng.basebuilder

["O'Flynn, Dennis" <Dennis.OFlynn@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Scott,

Thanks for the quick reply.

BTW - do you know what version of the releng.basebuilder the ECF fix was
adopted?

Hi Dennis,

The exception you saw was from the URLConnection-based impl of the 
filetransfer provider, and has since been fixed:

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=275852

So you and basebuilder can use either the URLConnection-based 
filetransfer provider or the httpclient-based one. The httpclient-based 
one is more robust than the URLConnection-based one (which is why it's 
now used for p2).

The basebuilder can/could use either one...I don't know what their 
policy is here so I'll leave them to answer your last two questions.
