Re: [tycho-user] Failing to build a master archive for an Eclipse plugin
 | 
Hi!

I would like to build a very simple Eclipse Plugin which I want to build
using maven and tycho. First, I must admit that do not understand much
about both maven and tycho, which seems to have an extreme learning
curve at the first glance, and I was not really able to find a tutorial
that is targeted at newbies. I found some tutorials covering how to
build RCP applications but nothing when I just want to create a simple
plugin for Eclipse.
I think I found the problem. First, it seems that I cannot enter
 mvn package
in the justify.repo directory. I have to be in the folder, where the 
parent pom.xml lives. Is this correct?
Second, in my category.xml file the entry looked like this:
   <feature url="features/justify.feature_0.0.0.qualifier.jar" id="justify.feature" version="0.0.0.qualifier"/>
Changing it to
   <feature url="features/justify.feature_0.0.0.qualifier.jar" id="justify.feature"/>
fixes the problem and my master archive is generated. I wondering 
whether the error messages could be tuned a bit to be more helpful. For 
instance, when bringing up the error message that a particular 
dependency cannot be resolved, it would be extremly useful to see 
information which dependencies actually exists.
Bye,
Sebastian
