Coding rules for Papyrus plug-ins and features

These rules apply to all plug-ins and features developed for the Papyrus Eclipse project, and distributed under the EPL licence.


Features and Plugins

We prefer when the Bundle-Name and Bundle-Vendor fields are externalized in the properties file. So we expect a file bundle.properties (or sometimes renamed into plugin.properties) for Plug-In, and a file feature.properties for Feature. A such file must be embedded in the binary build, so you must check in the Build Configuration tab that the file is selected.

Features

  • ID:
    • Main Papyrus components: org.eclipse.papyrus.<feature.name>.feature
      • e.g. org.eclipse.papyrus.infra.core.feature
  • Name: Papyrus <Feature Name>
  • Each feature.xml file must contains:

    • in Information Tab -> License Agreement
      • Check the field Shared License,
      • License Feature ID: org.eclipse.license,
      • License Feature Version: 2.0.2.

  • The build.properties file must contain the following files in the "Binary build" section:
    • feature.properties (When available)
    • feature.xml

Additional information for the build process

The build process also needs to know where is the license. There are 2 solutions :

Option 1

In the main pom.xml file (often in the pom.xml of releng/folder), you must write:

<repositories>
		<repository>
			<id>license-feature</id>
			<url>http://download.eclipse.org/cbi/updates/license/</url>
			<layout>p2</layout>
		</repository>
</repositories>

Option 2

Your target platform definition file (tpd) must also contains:

location "http://download.eclipse.org/cbi/updates/license/" eclipse-license {
 org.eclipse.license.feature.group lazy
}
