is it possible to download an eclipse plugin repository?

Question

i've got a PC with no internet connection and i need to install certain Eclipse plugins. is there a way to download the whole repository the plugins reside in (so that i can transfer it as a zip to my offline PC and point the Eclipse Updater to a local plugin repository)?

Answer 1

You can use the p2 mirror task (see http://wiki.eclipse.org/Equinox/p2/Ant_Tasks#Mirror_Task) or the B3 Aggregator (see http://wiki.eclipse.org/Eclipse_b3/aggregator/manual).
