On this page we use buckminster to build and release the project.
Install Buckminster
First add the software repository for Buckminster, which is,
http://download.eclipse.org/tools/buckminster/updates-4.4
(I assume this is for the Luna version but the website seems very out-of-date and does not actually say this)
From this repository I loaded the core, buckminster and Git support features:
Plugin Buckminster Project
Create a feature project:
New->other->plug-in development->Feature project
Use Xtext Buckminster Wizard
Because I wanted to include Xtext projects I ran the Xtext buckminster wizard for these projects:
| In Eclipse click on file->new and select 'Build Xtext with Buckminster' under other->Xtext->Continuous Integration. |  |
| The 'matching items' window is initially blank but typing a few letters into the top line brings up the options: |  |
| I left this page with default values and clicked on finish. |  |
Build p2 Repository
Right click on the site directory and goto buckminster->Invoke action.
Select site.p2 or site.p2.zip, and click OK. This creates a p2 repository.
Install from p2 Repository
In help->Install New Software.
Since I am using a local repositry I needed to add that repositry:
It seems best to uncheck 'Group items by category'
