I've been playing around with this today and it is working ok. When I install new features they are going to the bundle pool area and running with -clean doesn't remove them. I'll close this as invalid for now, perhaps I was running with crazy patched versions of JARs. (its been known to happen) |
R3.7.1 After performing a director install using the bundle pool option and installing extra features, the extra features are deleted when launching Eclipse with the -clean arg. This is because they are stored in the config area in the osgi/bundles folder. - Install the Platform IDE using the director and the arguments specified in [1]. (note change the repo location to be the real R3.7.1 repo) - start Eclipse from destination - install a new feature - note that the feature is installed into location [2] - start Eclipse with -clean Note that Help -> About -> Installation Details says that the feature is still installed but it is not in the list of installed features (or plug-ins) in the other config tabs. The profile property values are listed in [3]. -------- [1] eclipse.ini args -application org.eclipse.equinox.p2.director -profile PlatformProfile -destination /Users/equinox/destination -profileProperties org.eclipse.update.install.features=true -bundlePool /Users/equinox/shared -nosplash -console -consoleLog -installIU org.eclipse.platform.ide -repository file:///Users/equinox/Downloads/R3.7.1/ [2] location of installed extra features destination/configuration/org.eclipse.osgi/bundles/69/data/-371833256 [3] <properties size='6'> <property name='org.eclipse.equinox.p2.installFolder' value='/Users/equinox/destination'/> <property name='org.eclipse.equinox.p2.cache' value='/Users/equinox/shared'/> <property name='org.eclipse.update.install.features' value='true'/> <property name='org.eclipse.equinox.p2.cache.extensions' value='file:/Users/equinox/destination/configuration/org.eclipse.osgi/bundles/79/data/listener_1925729951/'/> ... </properties>
