At ECE 2013, the guys from Obeo show me their solution to create target files with version number. Mikael Barbero has written a small XText DSL that produce target files with hard coded version number.

 

I blogged about it:

http://www.bsiag.com/scout/version0-0-0-in-target-platform/

 

It does not solve any of the mentioned bugs, but given the current situation, it is an efficient solution to produce target files with fix version number.

 

Best regards,

Thanks Igor and Jörg. Filtering could work in theory but but similar to the description in https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=365962 this would create lots of manual work. Also placing in 0.0.0 in the target definition file would not work because according to https://wiki.eclipse.org/Tycho/Target_Platform the content selection of the target platform is also not considered. 

 

I tried to solve it by removing the Luna update site and including the individual updates sites, e,g. EMF, WTP XML editor. But finding the correct updates sites for all plug-ins and feature required for a SDK is very time consuming an error-prone.

 

Is it possible to set a filter for a specific update site? For example if I want to use the luna update side only for EMF and ECF?

 

Thanks for the advice, Lars

We only need Luna for the plug-ins which are not included in the CBI build and could in theory solve this with the usage of target definition files.

You can set the versions in the target definition to 0.0.0. However, you can not make that change in the editor. We use this to integrate against SNAPSHOTs of products also developed at our company.
