Re: [tycho-user] Multiple products based on features/plugins?
|
Hi Tobias,
Features can be composed by other features...
So, you could create features with fewer plugins inside and then compose
two big features (A and B) containing the other minor features...
I always use the bigger feature to map to the business story/use case/
process...
Ex: my system has a financial module (big feature) that is composed by
sub-modules features (accounting, payment, etc) and so on...
This make sense ? :)
regards,
Cristiano

Hi Guys,
i am having a problem. First of all this is the current situation:
I have a product file based on features where plugins 1 to 3 are
feature one, plugins 4 to 10 are feature two, and so on...
Everything works as expected, no problems with maven,tycho or jenkins.
Target is Windows/Linux
So right now i need another configuration with less functionallity,
which means with fewer plugins.
As far as i understand there are now two possibilitys:
1) Repack plugins to another feature which leaves me with the
following situation
plugin 1,2,3 -> featureA -> Product A
plugin 1 -> featureB -> Product B
plugin 4,5,6,7,8,9,10 -> featureA -> Product A
plugin 4,8 -> featureB -> Product B
and so on...
The problem here is of course the redundancy.
2)Product based on plugins
In this case i have to manually edit the product configuration files like
statet here:
http://wiki.eclipse.org/Tycho/FAQ#How_to_build_plugin-based_products_with_platform-specific_fragments.3F
If i am wrong please feel free to correct me ;)
So my Questions are:
1. Is my understanding right? Maybe i am missing something...
2. Right now i prefer the feature based product configuration, but can
i avoid the above mentioned redundancy?
3. What is the preferred way to handle multiple products with tycho?
Thank you in advance
Greetings from Germany
Tobias
