[Update Site] metadata [message #336429]

Hi,

Can somebody tell me how to generate metadata for an Eclipse Plugin Site?
I found this info: http://wiki.eclipse.org/Equinox_p2_Metadata_Generator
which tells me how to do this.

I'm quoting a piece of information:

>Want to simplify that down to a shell script with a couple of inputs -- site
>name ("Ganymede") and site path ("d:/ganymedeM5/")? Try this script. To run
>this you need either Eclipse, the p2-agent, or releng.basebuilder from tag
>M7_34 or later.

But I don't understand how to integrate the script in Eclipse. Can
somebody clarify that for me?

Thanks,
Jochen

Building the site from eclipse will generate the p2 metadata (my site
gets an artifacts.jar and a content.jar)

The link you refer to is when you have an existing site that you want to
update to contain p2 metadata. Is that what you want to do?
