Equinox Incubator - Provisioning
Eclipse has advanced quite quickly with new use-cases (RCP, Equinox, server side, etc.) and new technologies. However, to date Update Manager has not been enhanced to support or exploit these changes thus limiting the applications being developed. This incubator project is targetted at refreshing the client-side provisioning infrastructure in Eclipse. The refresh while not providing substantially more out-of-the-box functionality than Update Manager, will provide an open and extensibile provisioning platform. See the incubator proposal and the overview for additional detail.
The bulk of the current information on this work area is maintained in the wiki. There you will find documents discussing:
- Getting started
- Provisioning concepts
- The provisioning plan
- A whole host of articles on provisioning in general and related to specifically to the Equinox work
The p2 team uses the main Equinox resources with the following refinements.
