Hi,

I would like to get my license links right in my feature definitions an
wonder how that works for other projects.

Eg Oomph:
https://github.com/eclipse-oomph/oomph/blob/master/features/org.eclipse.oomph.all-feature/feature.xml
uses %licenseURL and %license

which I expected to be defined in
https://github.com/eclipse-oomph/oomph/blob/master/features/org.eclipse.oomph.all-feature/feature.properties
but they are not. Also a license.html file is missing in the repo which
I remember was needed (at least some time ago)

Are these files patched by tycho somehow? If yes, how does this work?

You're most likely looking for https://help.eclipse.org/latest/index.jsp?topic=%2Forg.eclipse.pde.doc.user%2Ftasks%2Fpde_shared_license.htm which is feature of PDE for a good ~10 years.

 

thanks
Christian
