Hi,
not having made any practical experiences with Tycho so far,
unfortunately, I'd have a question regarding downloaded bundles.
"Normal" maven dependencies are cached in the local repository once they
were downloaded. Now the question is: does this also hold true for
bundles learned from bundle descriptors, that were e.g. downloaded from
P2 repositories?
I guess they'd have to be "repackaged" as maven artifacts, with some
kind of generated POM in order to facilitate this, so I wonder whether
Tycho does this.
Thanks for any hints,
Jörg

When looking at slide 6 from
http://www.slideshare.net/jsievers/building-eclipse-plugins- with-tycho,
it seems that instead bundles are stored in a local p2 repository. Tycho
then seems to provide support for resolving dependencies against that
local p2 repository.
So in theory, it should be possible to write a maven mojo that has e.g.
the EMF generator as its dependency with
"<packaging>eclipse-plugin</packaging>"?
