Re: [tycho-user] SNAPSHOT in update site is not updated

[Julien HENRY <henryju@xxxxxxxx>]

Hi Jan & Tobias,

Jan is right and I am using maven-bundle-plugin. Sorry Tobias if I was not clear.

In my Tycho build I have a Maven dependency in parent pom (using -SNAPSHOT) and I have a feature that declare a dependency on the same artifact but without mentioning any version (0.0.0).

I will try to associate the build-helper-plugin to maven-bundle-plugin as suggested by Jan to generate a unique <Bundle-Version>.

Thanks

Julien

in case you are using maven-bundle-plugin [1]

It creates OSGi versions like e.g. 1.0.0.SNAPSHOT for maven version 1.0.0-SNAPSHOT by default.

If that's not what you want, you can configure it to use a timestamp instead e.g. using build-helper-maven-plugin [2].

It seems that you are using the non-snapshot (!) version X.Y.Z.SNAPSHOT.

You need to use X.Y.Z-SNAPSHOT as Maven version, and X.Y.Z.qualifier in the Eclipse metadata files (META-INF/MANIFEST.MF, feature.xml, *.product, …). Then, the “qualifier” is replaced by a timestamp during the build of the artifact.

It is not possible to change the qualifiers in the eclipse-repository module; see http://stackoverflow.com/questions/15441953/how-to-change-the-qualifier-in-the-file-names-of-plugins-and-features

Hi,

We are building an update site for the Sonar plugin and we have a dependency on another pom first artifact that is currently a SNAPSHOT. This artifact is built locally and then the Sonar Eclipse project is built.

As a result we ended with a plugin named artifact-X.Y.Z.SNAPSHOT.jar in the update site. Once installed in Eclipse, there is no way to update it. Even if we rebuild the artifact then rebuild Sonar Eclipse, the plugin always has the same version artifact-X.Y.Z.SNAPSHOT.jar so when doing a check for update in Eclipse it is not updated.

Is there a solution to tell Tycho to replace every .SNAPSHOT by a unique timestamp when creating the update site?

Thanks

Julien
