Hi ivy-users,
we are currently setting up a large code repository for OSGI bundles. Goal of
this work is to create recommendations models for Eclipse Code Recommenders
intelligent code completion, code search, and extdocs platform (see
http://eclipse.org/recommenders and http://code-recommenders.blogpost.com for
details). The OSGI bundles will be collected from public available Eclipse
Update Sites and should be stored locally using a Maven/Ivy like directory
structure. After the sites have been copied, several analyses will be run to
extract information such as frequent usage patterns, common code snippets etc.
I just learned that since 2.3. Ivy has support for dealing with OSGI
dependencies such as import packages etc. which is really big news! Since
documentation is a bit rare yet, I'd like to ask you for little information
what can be done with Ivy 2.3:
1. Is it supported to copy/mirror an Eclipse P2 repository into a local Ivy
repository?
2. Is there a simply way to create an Ivy file from an existing OSGI-bundle
manifest?
3. How well is resolving OSGI dependencies supported? Are there any known
limitations I should be aware?
Thanks a lot,
Marcel
is there a release plan for ivy 2.3 ? IvyDE 2.2 ?
