Re: [equinox-dev] Small RCP example with p2

[John Arthorne <John_Arthorne@xxxxxxxxxx>]

p2 doesn't currently have any API. About
the best you can do at the moment is to invoke the p2 command that opens
the install dialog. This command has id "org.eclipse.equinox.p2.ui.sdk.update".
 You can hook this command to a menu from your plugin.xml, or you
can invoke the command programmatically with code something like this:

         
      ICommandService commandService = (ICommandService)
PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getService(ICommandService.class);
         
      IHandlerService handlerService = (IHandlerService)
PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getService(IHandlerService.class);
         
      Command cmd = commandService.getCommand("org.eclipse.equinox.p2.ui.sdk.update");
         
      ExecutionEvent executionEvent = handlerService.createExecutionEvent(cmd,
null);
         
      cmd.executeWithChecks(executionEvent);

HTH,

Subject	[equinox-dev] Small RCP example with p2

Hi

I'm trying to put together a small p2 example: An RCP-App that
triggers an update action and updates a plugin from an update site.
My first question: Is there something like
"UpdateManagerUI.openInstaller()" for p2?
My second: How would a minimal p2-update site look like?

Thanks in advance.
Matthias
