[pde-build-dev] Buiding Update sites via headless builds.

All,

Sorry about spamming the dev list if this belongs on a news group, but after looking around I didn't see a news group for PDE. Hopefully this is the correct list, and not much of a bother.

At my company, I do PDE Headless builds and packaging. The last step I'd like to take is to publish update sites. I've found where Eclipse does this in the nightly build process, but it appears to me that the class to do it is in a very odd spot. It appears that it uses "org.eclipse.releng.generators.UpdateBuilder". Which the only reference I can find for that is inside of the org.eclipse.ve.releng.builder.

Somehow that seemed more appropriate to me to be in a "core" Eclipse tool rather then off in the Visual Editor infrastructure. It looks like I can just pull the two classes in isolation and use them, but I'd much rather use the "official" ones. Alternatively, I've missed something simple, and will be thrilled to learn how to do this with the stock tools.

Is the UpdateBuilder the best code to use for building update sites headlessly? Is there another copy of that class/code around that I can reference from inside of an Ant script?

    Kirby
