Oomph can speedup IDE installations due to its bundle pooling, such that artifacts already available can be reused by other installations. The documentation says
Oomph's underlying infrastructure supports bundle pooling for all aspects of the installation (and, optionally, even of the target platform)
However, there is no documentation how this optional part can be realized, given a target described by a plain old .target file. PDE target resolution will resolve the contained bundles in workspace\.metadata\...\org.eclipse.pde.core\.bundle_pool
, not in the Oomph based %HOME%\.p2\bundle_pool
.
So how can one make an Oomph installation resolve target bundles in the Oomph bundle pool to gain benefits if the target definition is changing often?
