Re: [tycho-user] No content found generating eclipse-repository under ty

[Simon Goodall <simon.goodall@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I think I originally found it here [1] and the Orbit repo seems to use
it too [2]. A google search just now hit up on an older tycho bug [3].

I've been using it for a while with the tycho-extras
publish-features-and-bundles goal to first build a repo out of 3rd
party plugins obtained via the maven dependency plugin and then call
category-p2-metadata to make the repo browsable in eclipse.

My aim is to make the results of one project consumable in another
tycho build and ideally also be browsable in eclipse.
