问题
I am trying to build Aptana studio using Maven/Tycho.
It has a lot of Eclipse plugins and I would like to exclude some of them from the build. However the excluded plugins may be required by other plugins.
How to see what plugins are dependent on the current plugin? Is the some tools to visualize dependencies in a directed graph?
回答1:
The Plugin Dependencies View which comes with PDE has a button (two-to-one graph) to show plugins depending on the focused plugin.
If you want to see the full picture, then you will need to install the PDE Incubator Dependency Visualization (update site link included). Note this often gets quickly unreadable.
UPDATE by Paul
Update site http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/pde/incubator/visualization/site
Need to uncheck "Group items by category" for item to appear.
It is version 0.5.0.20090415
So it is almost 5 years old and is unlikely to ever graduate from incubator.
