Re: [tycho-user] Custom build steps that work in Eclipse and Tycho?
|
Thanks, Pascal.
So currently the plug-in is a “Eclipse Plug-in Project” and not an “m2e Project”. It has a pom.xml, so yes I could run the ORM enhancement there, but not sure how that would effect debugging the app within eclipse. (i.e. building with maven takes us anywhere between 30 mins and 7 hours [there’s a bunch of native code involved elsewhere in the project])
So are you suggesting that I convert the plug-in project into an “m2e project”? Or does tycho honor the custom build.xml that can be configured within the build.properties?
Thanks,

Assuming your ORM has a Maven plug-in,
I recommend you to configure it in the pom.xml files.
Then when you import the projects in Eclipse using m2e, m2e will
perform some analysis of the Maven plug-ins configured and will
run those. When m2e analyzes the plug-ins two things can happen:
1 - the maven plug-in is understood by default, nothing needs
to be done
2 - the maven plug-in requires a specific Eclipse plug-in
called a connector
( https://www.eclipse.org/m2e/documentation/m2e-execution-not-covered.html)
to be installed in which case two things can happen
a - an eclipse plug-in exists for this maven plug-in and
all is good
b - no eclipse plug-in exists <<-- this will likely
be your case
So the bottom line is if you want to use the ORM and have it just
work for Maven and Eclipse, you will likely have to write a
connector.
If you don't feel like doing this connector authoring, you may
want to try to add a Builder to the project (right click >
Builders).

Greetings,
I’m using EBean ORM within one my plug-ins which
requires some Enhancement to be done to the persistent beans.
This can be usually done at runtime, however it requires the
JDK, which may not be present (and I’m not sure what the
redistribution rules on the JDK is since we already package with
JRE).
One solution to my problem is that I can pre-enhance
the beans to generate the class files using an ant task or maven
plugin, however - this kind of makes developing the app inside
the IDE a PITA because each time something get’s modified one
would have to run the maven goal to generate the code, refresh
eclipse, then launch the debugger from within eclipse.
Since I’m assuming others have run into similar
situations in working with tycho, can anyone recommend a
solution that allow me to do something to the plugin.xml,
manifest, etc that would make the development cycle more
pain-free that would permit me to execute some custom build step
before compilation of the classes, and is either complimentary
or integrates with tycho?
Thanks,
Jim
