[tycho-user] Is it possible to add product into update site

[g***@zf.com]

Hi,

I am new to Tycho-maven and want to develop eclipse components I have few doubts.

1. what is difference between site.xml and category.xml in update site?

2. I want to use product(should hold all the plugins) as part of my development how could I integrate with update site?

Could you please clarify my doubts?

It would be greatfull if you could provide me any sample project with above scenario. :)

Kind Regards

Hi Gangadhar,

the site.xml was used by the deprecated "eclipse-update-site". The category.xml is the same as the site.xml and used by the "eclipse-repository" (see [1]).
I am not sure what you mean by "add a product into update site". Maybe a good starting point might be to look at the "itp02-rcp" tycho demo project [2]. The eclipse repository within [3] does contain an example product file and generating an update site.
