| Re: [cross-project-issues-dev] Obscure org.eclipse.platform dependencies? Where are they? |
Because things are not always that simple, if they were we'd have no big need for Buckminster. :D OK that's flip, and I hope from this moment on they always will be that simple. :) But I think the basic issue is that p2 sites don't emit the product of *x-platform*, they emit the *product of x*. As keeps getting hammered into my head, the environment you build upon is not the same as the environment you provide. For example see: https://hudson.eclipse.org/hudson/job/Xtext-nightly-HEAD/ws/org.eclipse.xtext.git/releng/org.eclipse.xtext.releng/releng/xtext-platform.rmap/*view*/. I'm trying to come up with a good hypothetical but I can't now, but basically if I need to emit something that is based on another target platform, but is not included in their p2 site (as the case most recently in BIRT, and there was a similar case back on the CBI side with Xtext last year) then I need to find that and figure out how to integrate it properly into my build. At this point I'm grabbing everything I need from Helios, so any problems are solved and hopefully nothing like this will ever come up again in which case I'll shut up about it. ;) On Nov 18, 2010, at 10:21 PM, Thomas Hallgren wrote:
