[tycho-user] Configuration to use a target definition file and still bei

[Lars Vogel <lars.vogel@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I'm would like to use a target definition file and still being able to build individual bundles. Currently this does not work for me.

Here is my setup:

Project T - Contains target definition file 

Project parent - contains the configuration using T to define the target platform

<plugin>

<groupId>org.eclipse.tycho</groupId>

<artifactId>target-platform-configuration</artifactId>

<version>${tycho.version}</version>

<configuration>

<!-- This defines the target definition file -->

<target>

<artifact>

                                                <!-- This points to T  -->

<groupId>com.vogella.tychoexample</groupId>

<artifactId>com.vogella.build.targetdefinition</artifactId>

<version>1.0.0-SNAPSHOT</version>

</artifact>

</target>

                      </configuration>

</plugin>

Now I have Project A which uses Project parent as parent POM. If I run the build for A, T is not in the Maven reactor and Tycho cannot resolve the target definition. 

Workaround: I can solve this with an aggregator project which lists all these projects as modules  but I would like to keep the ability to build my bundles individually. 

Any suggestions / examples how to use target platform definition files but still being able to build individual bundles?

Best regards, Lars
