Eclipse pde with maven

[Not Zippy <no...@gmail.com>]

Hi

I am porting over an existing ant project build from ant to maven. I have
the core assets compiling with maven without issues. I also was able to get
plugin built for netbeans with very little difficulty at all. But with
eclipse it is turning into another beast all together.

Currently I am trying the org.eclipse.tycho plugin and I got it working so
that it packages but that's all it does (it does not appear to compile the
source or include any of the dependent projects). In the eclipse pom I
define the packaging as "eclipse-plugin", do I need to have the source
files in a separate project & pom ?

Anyone have an example of using this plugin ? or should I use another ..

thanks
Nz

Im thinking a shell to ant would be easier - the first time i ran with
the techo it spent over an hour downloading packages, I kept thinking
I had not properly set the plugin up properly - finally I left it to
run and it finished. But gave me a zip with only the configuration
files and it did not compile the source code. But if I changed the
packaging to "jar" the source would compile.

Ill talk to the other list and see if I am looking at the right thing.

thx

Got 2.0.3 installed and it doesn't have Eclipse P2 Repository as a
Proxy provider - only Maven1 and Maven2.
I'll ask over at the Nexus list.

Not that I am aware of.

We still use pde-maven-plugin which has long been abandoned.
Its just a shell to the Eclipse Ant build framework anyway.

I'm trying to migrate to tycho but the lack of p2 mirror support in
Nexus is causing me pain being behind a firewall and annoying since it
always wants to download the damn index file - which I assume hasn't
changed since the last time I invoked it.
Nexus OSS doesn't support p2 - only the commercial product.

I just wanted to verify that there wasnt a better plugin to do the job for
an eclipse pde, thats why I asked here first.
