Hi, Charles,
These two bugs are completely independent.
The Papyrus-RT RCP is the all-in-one download-unzip-and-go package that is the easiest path for users from nothing to drawing UML-RT models.
The Papyrus-RT Installer provides the nice Oomph installer experience of installation management with bundle pooling, workspace management, and all the rest, focusing the software available for installation on the Papyrus-RT product only. What it does is effectively to re-create, on-demand, any release version of the Papyrus-RT RCP on the user’s local machine. In addition, for advanced/bleeding-edge users, it supports dropping in any old setup model like the “tester setup” to install and work with alternative Papyrus-RT configurations. Is the Swiss Army knife of Papyrus-RT distribution.
Cheers,
Christian

OK. So now I’m confused (I’m starting to channel Peter since he’s
away ;-)…
We have two bugs opened:
Yours: 506005 Papyrus-RT Custom Installer Céline’s: 505416 [RCP and Product] List of missing requirement
for the RCP Product
Are they then both the same thing? Or two aspects of
the same thing? Or just related in some way? Or completely
different?
I was under the impression that yours 506005 was
something temporary until the (true?) RCP (505416) was finally
available (post 0.8 it seemed)… But your last email seems to
indicate that they are one and the same.
I must be misunderstanding a few things here.
But in the end, the Papyrus-RT product goal is
for the end user to download a single file that installs a
milestone version of Papyrus-RT with no or limited
interventions from the use (ideally: download, extract, install,
and run).

Hi, Charles,
Not quite. The distinction between tester and
end-user configurations of the Papyrus-RT product is in the Oomph
setup index, not in the installer. It would be best for all
users to use the latest “release” of the installer, but I cannot
say when that will be available because it depends on the Oomph
team’s release schedule. So, for now, everyone needs to use
the nightly installer and whatever installer one does use will be
pointed at the same Oomph setup index containing only our
Papyrus-RT product releases.
For testers, they can continue to use the
papyrus-rt-tester.setup model in ad hoc fashion as they always
have. The procedure does not change; the Papyrus-RT Installer
supports the “user products” in the same fashion as the Eclipse
Installer.

Thanks Christian!
Yes, it does H (;-)
So when we release, we will publish
links on the wiki pointing to each OS-specific installer's
compressed archive file using the first location for
testers and the second location for users.
Correct?

Hi, Charles,
The installer is produced by the Papyrus-RT-Installer
build. It isn’t streamed (master/neon/oxygen/etc.) because
there is one installer that will make all releases ever in the
history of Papyrus-RT available.
But the better place to get the installer is from the download
server:
Note
that there hasn’t yet been a release build of the installer because
the Oomph framework on which it is based has not yet been
released.
HTH,
Christian

I had a look at the Hudson Dashboards
and there are _lots_ of build. I can’t and won’t comment on the
number of builds in itself.
What I would like to know is, which of these builds will give me
Christian’s Papyrus-RT Installer and which one will give me
Céline’s RCP?
Thank I can start testing more seriously...
Thanks!
