| [equinox-dev] Is the P2 installer supposed to work? |
I only ask because I downloaded the installer from: http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/equinox/drops/S-3.4RC1-200805161333/index.php#Provisioning and when running it, it doesn't install the SDK as the documentation suggests: http://wiki.eclipse.org/Equinox_p2_Installer * Get the installer for your platform from the equinox download page. * Unzip the installer anywhere on your local disk * Run the "p2installer" executable * In the install wizard, select where you want to install the software Shows a dialog with "Where do you want to install null?" I had a look at the p2installer.ini: -showsplash org.eclipse.platform -vmargs -Xdock:icon=../Resources/Eclipse.icns -XstartOnFirstThread -Xms40m -Xmx256m -XX:MaxPermSize=256m -Dorg.eclipse.swt.internal.carbon.smallFonts No mention of the org.eclipse.equinox.p2.installDescription that the page suggests it looks for. I try adding it, and get a new message saying the error is invalid. That's maybe because the URL that that page points to is invalid: http://update.eclipse.org/eclipse/testUpdates/sdk-installer.properties - 404 not found * When finished, you can delete the installer I deleted it. At least that worked ... Alex
