Eclipse IDE UI provides the function to create a update site project and click the build or build all button to build the update site within the IDE. I have a question: could we call "Update Site Builder" outside of eclipse IDE UI to build the update site suppose we have the update site project is created in a eclipse workspace and the site.xml has been defined and populated within the update site project. Then, we just want to run a batch command line task against the update site of the eclipse workspace to build the update site.

Can we achive that and how?

thanks!

Hi,

what do you mean by 'we just want to run a batch command line task against the update site of the eclipse workspace to build the update site'?

May be you want to mirror the update site?
One option is the P2 publisher. Introduction at http://wiki.eclipse.org/Equinox/p2/Publisher.

Regards,
Martin

I looked into http://wiki.eclipse.org/Equinox/p2/Publisher and found it only provides the capability of generating artifacts.xml and content.xml. What we expect to do is does the same thing as the Bulid All button does in Update Site project UI.

Here's the summary of what we would like to do.

1. Create eclipse update site project.
2. Define site.xml by using update site project UI. (all required features and plugins are available in the workspace holding the update site project or in the target platform of PDE.)
3. Instead click Build All button in the update site project UI, we would like to run a external process which will do the same thing as the Build All button, i.e. create all features and plugins jar files, and artifacts.xml and content.xml files. or the same function as menu PDE Tools->Build Site.

Highly appreciate your helps.

That's the PDE headless build you are looking for. See http://help.eclipse.org/helios/topic/org.eclipse.pde.doc.use r/tasks/pde_feature_build.htm. This needs some configuration.

That's the PDE headless build you are looking for. See http://help.eclipse.org/helios/topic/org.eclipse.pde.doc.use r/tasks/pde_feature_build.htm This needs some configuration.
