Re: [p2-dev] Questions on feature requiring another feature based on another update site

Pascal,

ok about the second solution (composite). But how do you implement the first one ie adding Xtext repo as a reference ?

Thanks
Jeff

The other way to do this is by using a composite that aggregates your own repo and the xtext one.

Subject: [p2-dev] Questions on feature requiring another feature based on another update site

 

Hello,

 

I have the following case. I am building my own feature that needs another external feature (Xext).

I want to build an update site containing my own bits but I want to make sure that when a user install my feature from my update site, the Xtext can also be installed from the Xtext update site.

So what I did it that I added the Xtext update site in my feature.xml as a Sites to visit.

But when I install my feature on a stock Eclipse installation, then the installation fails because the required featured cannot be found.

 

Am I doing something wrong ?

 

Thanks

Jeff
