Equinox p2 Meetings
Revision as of 11:42, 13 August 2007 by Unnamed Poltroon (Talk)
Week of 20070813
Agenda
- Separation of concerns around the artifact repository (https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=197644).
- Shared install:
- How much of the things noted in the discussion (http://dev.eclipse.org/mhonarc/lists/equinox-dev/msg02692.html) are provisioning related vs runtime related (location of preferences, log files, cache, etc.)
- Controlling the Engine:
- The engine currently takes an operation to install, or uninstall IUs. Can this separation of installation / uninstallation / update / etc. be kept? How do we reconcile?

Artifact repository
Want to do post-processing steps after download, such as unpack-200, re-assembling compressed deltas. Should the repository be aware of these post-processing steps, or should it be done independently? When mirroring between repositories, some post-processing steps are not necessary (for example unpacking zips/jars
Distinguish between original bytes (as they are added to the repository from build system), and stored bytes (the actual bytes stored on disk in the repository). When mirroring between repositories it is optimized to directly mirror the stored bytes, rather than the original bytes.
