I am a brand new Tycho user - so I apologize if this is a
          silly oversight on my part!  I am using v 0.21.0.
        
        
        
        It has went pretty smoothly but I am having trouble using a
          *target file to define/configure my repository.
        
        
        One 'wrinkle' in my setup is that I have a P2 repository
          that requires authentication.  So, I have the proper
          <server> element in my settings.xml to define the
          credentials.  When I build my multi-module project with a
          <repository> defined, I am able to successfully
          reference the remote P2 repo and retrieve all artifacts.
        
        
        However, when I attempt to use the <target> element
          in my <configuration> node, it seems to simply be
          ignored, and then my build fails because it can't find any of
          the dependencies provided by the repository.  Furthermore,
          when running Maven in debug mode, I see no output to indicate
          that it is even trying to use this target platform
          configuration.
        
        
        I am aware of the restriction that says the *target file
          must be named based on the artifactId - so I do have a file
          named com.xxx.build.target.target in the root of the target
          project.  
        
        
        Thanks for the help and let me know what other information
          I can provide to help.
