Re: [tycho-user] tycho 0.11.0 always downloading content.xml and artifacts.xml from local p2 helios mirror


Like Dino, i use the same method to keep the target platform under version control.

I don't know if it is the normal practice but it seems to be a famous one.
So tycho can work with it.

The .target file is an eclipse file which let the developpers having their target platform up to date at any time. You can tell tycho to use it in order to build your project.

You will have to make .target file with eclipse (and you will have to choose each bundle needed), then you can put that .target file in a small project and put this one on the svn so it will be under version control. Then when your developpers checkout this project they can use eclipse to build the target platform from the .target file.

If you need further informations, i just did those things, i am almost hairless but now i understand better tycho than before so don't hesitate.

regards.

Hi Dimo,

I use a maven project that contains the .target file. Since it is a project like any other it is put into version control.


Regards,
Davy

Hi Vincent,

Thank you for the fast response!

We are currently targeting only one platform so it should be possible. I did not really know however how to build it and also it would require us to keep it under version control which I would not like to do.

Is that the normal practice with eclipse RCP and tycho - to keep the target platform(s) in version control? If not, how do you distribute the target platform to all developers?

Best regards,
Dimo
