There has been a lot of talk lately about p2.  While many people know p2 as the update mechanism used by Eclipse, it is in fact a general purpose provisioning platform.  This means you can use the provisioning platform as a base to build a highly customized provisioning solution for your own needs… whether it is an Eclipse application, OSGi application or anything else.

On September 15, I will be presenting an introduction to p2. In particular, I will demonstrate how you can use p2 to build a provisioning solution for Eclipse RCP applications. The webinar will teach you how you can:

• Make use of the p2 provisioning platform for software management
• Integrate the creation of p2 repositories into your build system
• Reuse the p2 user interface and existing work-flows
• Customize the p2 user interface for your specific needs
• Debug common pitfalls

For more information, please see the registration page.

If you want anything else discussed about p2 in the webinar, please leave a comment and if there is time, I will try to get to it.
