NAME

       jh_installeclipse - Installs eclipse features built by pde-build into package build directories

SYNOPSIS

       jh_installeclipse [debhelper options] [--install-name=name] [--pde-build-dir=dir] [feature [...]]

DESCRIPTION

       jh_installeclipse is a javahelper program that handles installing eclipse features built by pde-build
       into package build directories. These features can be specified either in the package's eh-install file
       or via command-line.

       jh_installeclipse uses debhelper behind the scenes and are therefore subject to the compat level (e.g.
       when parsing eh-install files).

       jh_installeclipse will replace all the embedded orbit depends imported by jh_generateorbitdeps with
       symlinks post install. The symlinked jar files will also be used to populate ${orbit:Depends} variable.

FILES

       debian/package.eh-install
           List the eclipse features to install into each package and optionally under which name. The format is
           a  set  of  lines, where each line lists a file or files to install, and at the end of the line tells
           the name it should be installed under. You may use wildcards in the names of the files to install.

           If name is not present, eh_install will either use the install name given  on  the  command  line  or
           attempt  to  guess  it  from  the  package name. It is perfectly legal for two or more features to be
           installed under the same name.

OPTIONS

       --install-name=name
           Specifies the name to install under if it is not given in the file. It is perfectly legal to  install
           more than one feature under the same name.

       --pde-build-dir=dir
           Specifies the directory from where pde-build was run. Defaults to "debian/.eclipse_build".

EXAMPLE

       Suppose  your package builds org.eclipse.emf and org.eclipse.xsd and you want to put org.eclipse.emf into
       eclipse-emf and org.eclipse.xsd into eclipse-xsd.  Then make debian/eclipse-emf.eh-install contain:

         org.eclipse.emf

       and debian/eclipse-xsd.eh-install contain:

         org.eclipse.xsd

       jh_installeclipse will then install org.eclipse.emf  into  usr/share/eclipse/dropins/emf/  and  xsd  into
       usr/share/eclipse/dropins/xsd/.

       In  case  your package is not called eclipse-name, or you want to install two different features into the
       same package, you will have to provide a name. Suppose you wanted to install both eclipse  above  into  a
       single package called foo, then debian/foo.eh-install should contain:

         org.eclipse.emf emf
         org.eclipse.xsf xsd

       This  program  is  a  part  of  javahelper  and  uses  debhelper  as backend. There are also tutorials in
       /usr/share/doc/javahelper.
