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

Hi, 

There is no support in PDE Build to
generate the site.xml. However the packager should support the creation
of jars ready for an update site by setting the property: outputUpdateJars=true

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
