Re: [riena-dev] Riena 2.0.M6 and (in this case unwanted) RAP dependencies

...tried many ways:

Build own feature containing the riena bundles we need to get rid of the Riena Updatesite inside the IDE,
installed from our updatesite (unchecked contact other sites)

in different combinations and ways

but always sometimes after restarting eclipse,
P2 thought "oooh there's an optional dependency to RAP and I know where the bundles are..." and again rap plug-ins are in the IDE

so the only way (for now) we're using 3 modified riena plug-ins
(o.e.r.navigation.ui.swt, o.e.r.ui.ridgets.swt, o.e.r.ui.swt)
where we deleted the optional RAP dependencies,
put them together with all our riena bundles used inside IDE into a Feature on our updatesite
and now it works

running RCP apps and using a TargetPlatform all works well using the normal Riena Updatesite, because there we have control which plug-ins to start

the bad thing: eclipsecon is coming and I spent the day with unexpected things
the good thing: eclipsecon is coming where we can talk with the ppl from RAP and P2 how to solve this better

hi christian,

sorry - I dont want to give a wrong impression !

confirmed from me, too:

Riena works well using Helios M6 SDK together with Riena 2.0.0.M6
I installed all successfully into the TargetPlatform :)
...and will blog about it in detail...

redView uses Riena from TargetPlatforms if running in RCP Applications,
but redView also offers a Designer to be used inside the IDE - and of course we're using Ridgets,
so we need some of the Riena bundles

our Updatesite has dependencies to Riena Plug-ins like org.eclipse.riena.ui.swt
and P2 finds this Plug-in in Rienas Updatesite
so far so good

but this (and some other) plug-ins now support RAP - which is great :)
some days ago I saw the first time a redView (EMF) View inside a running RAP application

the problem is P2 - in this case P2 is too smart and finds all optional references
from the MANIFEST.MF - and so I got rap and swt both installed into the IDE

at EclipseCon I think there will be some time ta talk about this dilemma with P2, RAP and Riena

in the meantime I'm working on a solution how it could be done for our special case
using some bundles of Riena inside the IDE

I'll let you know about it

Hi Ekke,

I understand your problem and we were already chatting about how to solve them. However Riena's features are marked as installable in the Target Platform of the IDE only. Thats what we tested and thats what is working as far as I know off.

So I agree that it should be possible to use some bundles also in the IDE since you need them. But Riena is fully functionally in M6 if used as a Target Platform together with Equinox and RCP.

Please dont give people the wrong impression that Riena 2.0.0.M6 does not work......

thanks

christian

p.s. besides its even unclear whom to blame Riena or p2...

just did a test, but i doesn't help to explicitely depend on
swt, eclipse.ui, etc

reason is that riena bundles now have optional dependencies
to rap and rcp
and if used inside an IDE, both are started
I have no control on this
P2 of course founds both on helios sites
BLOCKER

hi christian,

if we install into IDE then we only have the riena M6 updatesite available
and choose our redview features from our updatesite

then its up to P2 to resolve the dependencies - and find RAP from the optional package

think, I have a solution:

we create 2 additional features:

org.redview.rcp
with explicit bundle dependency to 'normal' bundles

org.redview.rap
with explicit bundle dependency to RAP bundles

then deploy two update sites where always only one feature is included

then the user can choose what to get and P2 will get the right bundles

Hi Ekke,


Riena now comes with an optional package that allows you to run Riena with RAP. Is it possible that you install including all optional dependencies ?

hi,
just did our first tests using Riena 2.0.0.M6

works well if used normally in Target Platform - installed all successfully using helios M6 SDK
(will blog later a detailed description)

but in redview we're using some bundles of Riena in the IDE (needed from redViews Designer Editor)

we've successfully build an updatesite running with Riena 2.0.0.M5
yesterday evening flo fixed compile errors and created a new updatesite for redview with Riena M6

I just tried in a new SDK M6 workspace with Riena 2.0.0.M6
and corrupted my IDE because some RAP bundles come in (see attachment)

think that there are some dependencies from redview (perhaps package-import-dependency) to riena causing eclipse to get a wrong bundle into the IDE

thanks for any hint where we should look
