Re: [tycho-user] Maven/Tycho dependencies not available in IDE/PDE

[Lee Carver <leeca@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Pascal, et al. -

To bring this problem to a close, I had configuration problems in the unrecognized "bundling" projects.  Executing "Maven > Update Project..." for the entire suite fixed this.  The Update Projects step added Java and Plugin natures to each of the bundling projects, a .classpath, and a few .settings/ files.

Once all the "bundling" projects had the correct natures and configuration files, they were properly recognized as satisfying the MANIFEST.MF implied dependencies in the real plugin projects. This means that the Eclipse PDE/IDE listed those bundling projects within the Plugin Dependencies classpath container, and compilation errors from the unknown symbols were eliminated.

Due to the heavy-handed changes made by the Configure > Convert to Maven Project process, I had removed some of the created configuration files.  Most obnoxious was Maven's insistence to reset the project to Java 1.5 (please, just leave it alone!).  I guess one or more of the added natures was actually required.

Thanks

It is recommended to use target platform files.
Basically you define a target platform file that includes everything you need. This file is then used in the IDE to feed PDE, and it is also used in Tycho.
For example at http://git.eclipse.org/c/egerrit/org.eclipse.egerrit.git/tree/pom.xml#n96 you can see a target platform being used by Tycho and you can find the target platform definitions in http://git.eclipse.org/c/egerrit/org.eclipse.egerrit.git/tree/org.eclipse.egerrit.target

Hi Folks -

I've now got my Maven build working for RCP + JOGL libraries, but the IDE environment is not getting the right dependencies and the editors are littered with compilation errors.  If only the dependencies in the POM were part of the PDE builds ...

Actually, in one workspace with an RCP tutorial and the JOGL bundle, the "Plug-in Dependencies" shows the JOGL bundle as expected, and everything seems to work out well.

In another workspace, with a slightly more complex RCP application and a similar OSGi packaged bundle (for JUNG), the bundled library does not show up.  The .project, .classpath and pom.xml files are very similar.

What are the recommended strategies for adding OSGi bundles to Eclipse PDE builds that also use Tycho?

Thanks
