Using Tycho to automate plugin builds w/ Maven [message #549384]

Hey all,
Looking through many sites and processes, it seems the problem of doing automated PDE builds still isn't solved -- has Tycho solved it?

For example, there is a very small plugin here that I would love to have automated with Maven (maven2, or maven3 only?) (via Hudson) and auto-update a local DEV update site/repository.

However, this doesn't seem trivial, am I incorrect?

To save people a LOT of issues --

<plugin>
  			<groupId>org.sonatype.tycho</groupId>
<!--        WRONG ARTIFACT TYPE (i.e. don't follow assumed convention)
  			<artifactId>maven-tycho-plugin</artifactId>
-->

  			<artifactId>tycho-maven-plugin</artifactId>
  			<version>${tycho-version}</version>
  			<extensions>true</extensions>
</plugin>

And requires Maven 3.0.X or greater (even if alpha/beta state).

Not sure if I got the range right, but something like this may help people:

 <plugin>
        <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
        <artifactId>maven-enforcer-plugin</artifactId>
        <executions>
          <execution>
            <id>enforce-versions</id>
            <goals>
              <goal>enforce</goal>
            </goals>
            <configuration>
              <rules>
                <requireMavenVersion>
                  <version>[3.0-beta, 3)</version>
                </requireMavenVersion>
              </rules>
            </configuration>
          </execution>
        </executions>
      </plugin>
