The preliminary challenge is more that this Mojo requires some Platform bundles (PDE apitools and it dependencies) to be available as Maven artifacts. This is not something easy to manage, and CBI does not yet provide that. We first need to discuss how bundles can be made available via Maven. Moreover, to avoid bad surprises, the Mojo should depend on releases of the bundles; however, Tycho does not have a release mechanism and all builds do produce SNAPSHOTs. What I did so far, as explained in the bug, is that I manually installed in my local repo some Eclipse bundles as release (using x.y.z.qualifier as version for the release), so the Mojo could resolve them. But this is still a hack. The same issue will occur for all stuff that used to be done with Ant tasks and that we don't want to fully rewrite: generation of extension point description ( https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=350735 ) is another example. |
