This seems to be a misconception. I let you try the following
scenario:
At the same time
* start "mvn clean verify -Dmultile-to-repo.includeSources=true" on
jbosstools-target-platforms/jbosstools/multiple
* Import TP in workspace and click "Set as Target Platform", or (often
better) go to Preferences > PDE > Target-Platform, select the new TP
and click "Apply"
The first one to finish is declared winner.
No, the first one to let me work in my IDE is the winner. The Mvn task
does not block my workspace.
Btw. just so we compare the right apples and oranges - which target file
do you want me to use ? also .multiple ?
From my place, IDE takes about 15 minutes to have TP loaded (I tried
3
times), whereas I started mirroring with Maven 50 minutes ago and it's
still running.
> [TP in IDE] needs to download everything on every new workspace
That's true. But since mirroring takes more than 3 times more time,
then it's the same time to update TP in 3 different workspace. There
is no time saved by mirroring TP with Maven except if you're using it
in more that 4 workspace.
Since I can also use the mvn output as a mirror setup it at least for me
is much faster and reputable.
btw. if tycho is so much slower - I wonder what it is doing since PDE
should be doing the same thing...
> It often fails
I wish you would report it when it happens, so we can find out the
reason and hopefully fix it.
You want me to report broken network connections to eclipse.org mirrored
servers ?
/max
So I confirm and insist that I still (and will probably always)
recommend using directly .target in IDE, because it's simpler and more
efficient.
