[cdt-dev] Move CDT build to Tycho 0.14.0 ?

[Marc-Andre Laperle <malaperle@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I would like to change the CDT build (both 8_0 and master) to use Tycho 
0.14.0 so that we can build the documentation index. In addition, the 
javadoc and extension documentation is not generated, that would be 
fixed at the same time. This would be done by using the new 
tycho-eclipse-run plugin recently added to tycho 0.14 that provides a 
generic way to run an Eclipse application.

A problem I encountered when using 0.14 is that it can't find the 
repository specified in org.eclipse.cdt.core.tests

<repositories>
<repository>
<id>cdt.repo</id>
<url>file:/${basedir}/../../releng/org.eclipse.cdt.repo/target/repository</url>
<layout>p2</layout>
</repository>
</repositories>

I think this was trying to make sure that the plugins that were just 
built are actually the one that will be tested. Perhaps Doug can confirm 
this?
From what I tested, this is not necessary anymore. Tycho pickups up the 
plugins that were just built when running the tests. So, with the lines 
commented out, the build goes smoothly.

Any objections to moving to 0.14.0?
