Hey,

I'm running eclipse 3.3 and am reading the docs about automatic updates
from the command line:

/help/topic/org.eclipse.platform.doc.isv/reference/misc/upda te_standalone.html

My goal is to install the latest version of a feature X (from an ant
script), without knowing whether the feature is installed at all. So the
command I'd like to have is:

If not installed, install latest version, else update.

Do I need to implement this logic myself or is anything more comfy
available?

Thanks,
Felix

Hey,

Jeromes post below, about update manager, was also unanswered, maybe the
people that could help are on another group?


Thanks,
Felix

If people here can't help, I would suggest eclipse.technology.equinox
and put [P2] at the beginning of the subject.

As of 3.4, p2 is responsible for updates and installs.
