Re: [tycho-user] how to recreate dropins folder

Thanks that did the trick!

(I notice our earlier product had a p2.inf file; but it was not migrated correctly when we tried to layout out the project according to tycho conventions.

Hi,

you have to create a p2.inf file with instructions to creates a dropins folder : 

instructions.configure=\
mkdir(path:${installFolder}/dropins);

Subject: [tycho-user] how to recreate dropins folder

This may end up being a very simple answer - or perhaps not :-)

I have been tasked with updating one of the oldest RCP projects known to man[1] to the Tycho build system. A number of developers have taken a run at this, and we have just now managed to arrive on the latest Tycho release, we are building a product that includes a launcher and so forth.

There is however one missing bit! The generated artefact does not contain a dropins folder.

When releasing manually form eclipse[1] the "Product Wizard" has a checkbox for "Generate metadata repository" which is how we normally get the "dropins" folder created.

Is their a similar trick we need to make to enable this functionality in our tycho configuration?

Product:
https://github.com/uDig/udig-platform/blob/master/features/net.refractions.udig-product/pom.xml
https://github.com/uDig/udig-platform/blob/master/features/net.refractions.udig-product/net.refractions.udig-product.product

I would like to have this ready in time to join the Eclipse LocationTech working group [3] hopefully we are close.
