Hello,
Hello,
I am trying to add the option to download SAP HANA Cloud
Platform server adapter from the New Server wizard.
Our update site is packaged with Maven as
eclipse-repository and not as eclipse-update-site.
On the other side it looks like the Server Discovery
relies on site.xml.
Would you advice me how to proceed?
Should I convert back to the deprecated
eclipse-update-site packaging or there is a Maven option to
generate repository with site.xml?
Indeed, WTP discovery mechanism relies on existence of a site.xml,
and will resolve features that have category
"org.eclipse.wst.server.core.serverAdapter" as server adapters.
Instead of switching back to the old format, I'd recommend you keep
the eclipse-repository format and generate a site.xml that contains
the server adapters. See for example, this mojo:
https://github.com/jbosstools/jbosstools-maven-plugins/blob/master/tycho-plugins/repository-utils/src/main/java/org/jboss/tools/tycho/sitegenerator/GenerateRepositoryFacadeMojo.java
which (among others) creates a site.xml derived from the
category.xml and with the actual versions, so that WTP discovery can
consume it. Output is
http://download.jboss.org/tools/updates/webtools/luna/
