Hi all,
I'm currently banging my head on the m2eclipse-wtp -> m2e-wtp migration, so
if anyone as any good ideas, I'm open to suggestions.
Here's what we have :
- m2e-wtp (@eclipse) uses a new namespace for eclipse plugins/features :
org.eclipse.m2e.wtp instead of org.maven.ide.wtp
- m2e-wtp keeps the m2eclipse-wtp configurator identifiers to maintain
backward compatibility with 3rd party plugins (JBoss Tools ecosystem,
Google Eclipse Plugin ...)
- m2e-wtp installation doesn't disable m2eclipse-wtp plugins since the
namespace changed.
- installing m2e-wtp over m2eclipse-wtp is bad (as "crossing the streams"
bad) since m2e-core now finds duplicate configurators which produces errors.
- I created (locally) an m2eclipse-wtp 0.15.999 empty feature that
requires m2e-wtp 0.16.0. m2e-wtp is correctly installed but I'm still
seeing the duplicate configurators as previous m2eclipse-wtp 0.15.2 plugins
are still active.
Ideally m2e-wtp would disable m2eclipse-wtp when installed, but I'm afraid
it seems impossible (yeah I suck at eclipse/OSGi stuff).
So that means the only way to install m2e-wtp for existing m2eclipse-wtp
users will be to either start from a pristine eclipse installation or
uninstall m2eclipse-wtp beforehand, breaking the update process for
products already embedding m2eclipse-wtp.
Hopefully I'm missing something. Sooo, any ideas?
Regards,
Fred Bricon

Using p2.inf on a repository, we can add extra actions to installations.
Maybe there is the necessary stuff to uninstall an IU if present... I
honestly don't know a lot about those p2.inf files:

Is m2e-wtp 0.16 marked as singleton?

Yes.
I'm getting help from Pascal Rapicault, p2 guru and he advised me to do
2 things :
- use p2.inf to basically prevent that m2e-wtp and m2eclipse-wtp are
both installed at the same time, using the fact they're singletons.
(http://git.eclipse.org/c/m2e-wtp/org.eclipse.m2e.wtp.git/commit/?id=d2cce...).
That part works.
- hack content.xml in content.jar from the gen'ed update site to try to
make m2e-wtp updateable from both m2eclipse-wtp and m2e-wtp. Since tycho
and p2 don't allow that part during build time, I wrote a groovy script
that does that during packaging :
http://git.eclipse.org/c/m2e-wtp/org.eclipse.m2e.wtp.git/commit/?id=62158....
Unfortunetaly, even though the script behaves properly, the effect on
plugin update doesn't work as advertised. Pascal is looking into it.

Does it work when org.eclipse.m2e.wtp.feature installed on eclipse without
m2eclipse-wtp?
