Hi Henrik,
Thank you for your suggestion. This seems very promising and so I went for
it:
1. Starting with Eclipse 3.6.2 and installed additions for EMF-Compare and
b3 aggregator via update sites mentioned on the Eclipse wiki.
2. Create a simple aggregator model in the Aggregator Model Editor:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<aggregator:Aggregator xmi:version="2.0" xmlns:xmi="http://www.omg.org/XMI";
xmlns:aggregator="http://www.eclipse.org/b3/2010/aggregator/1.0.0";
label="first-test" buildRoot="build">
<configurations/>
<configurations operatingSystem="linux" windowSystem="gtk"/>
<contributions label="test">
<repositories location="C:\Components\Eclipse"
mirrorArtifacts="false"/>
<repositories location="C:\Components\Equinox"
mirrorArtifacts="false"/>
</contributions>
</aggregator:Aggregator>
3. This model builds fine and when it is opened with the Aggregator Model
Editor I see two p2 repos and their contents as a tree which is very cool.
---
This is were I got stuck as I could not figure out how to get an EMF file
of the p2 repositories.
Message http://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php/m/521750/ mentions the
ecore model for p2 and the need to supporting saving these files. However I
did not find a way to save these so that I can use the EMF compare on it.
I tried selecting both p2 repo nodes in the Aggregator Model Editor and
then compare via context menu entry 'Compare with -> Each Other' but that
wasn't enabled. While this was not unexpected, that would be a great
feature.
>From https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=306980 it appears I may
need a newer version of the aggregator and to write code.
Is there an end user feature available in some newer version supporting
this?
Thank you
