Windows 7
Eclipse Neon
Tycho 0.26-SNAPSHOT
I have read this blog post
(https://codeiseasy.wordpress.com/2012/07/31/including-a-jre-in-a-tycho-build/),
four years old, and this blog post
(http://eclipseo.blogspot.com/2014/11/bundle-jre-along-with-your-product.html),
two years old. The newer blog post skips the step where a p2.inf
file is created.
Question 1) Is the p2.inf file no longer needed?
I have done the following.
Created the below directories
/software.usque.appFeature/linux-64bit
/software.usque.appFeature/macosx
/software.usque.appFeature/windows-32bit
/software.usque.appFeature/windows-64bit
The build.properties files is as follows.
bin.includes = .,\
feature.xml
root.win32.win32.x86_64=win32-64
root.linux.gtk.x86=linux-64
root.win32.win32.x86=win32
root.macosx.cocoa.x86_64=macosx
I get the following error during the Maven build.

Did some searching and found this,
https://github.com/serge-rider/dbeaver/issues/115, which basically
says create a directory named ...\target\generated-macos
and put one arbitrary file, I created a file called filler.txt, in the ...\target\generated-macos
directory and that should fix the build error. But that is not
what is happening in my case.
The ...\target directory of
the Eclipse product project.
...app.product\target\software.usque.app.product-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.zip
...app.product\target\extraArtifacts
...app.product\target\generated-macos
...app.product\target\org.eclipse.equinox.executable-3.6.300.v20160525-1303
...app.product\target\p2agent
...app.product\target\products
...app.product\target\repository
...app.product\target\targetPlatformRepository
...app.product\target\local-artifacts.properties
...app.product\target\p2artifacts.xml
...app.product\target\p2content.xml
And just in case I misunderstood the blog, I also tried putting
the generated-macos directory
and file in the target of the Eclipse feature project of the app,
but that made no difference.
Question 2) How do fix this? Help please.
