[tycho-dev] Mac Bundle

[Doug Schaefer <dschaefer@xxxxxxx>]

Hey gang, I just joined this list. Since we rely pretty heavily on Tycho, I need to get more involved.

I'm trying to build our IDE as a Mac bundle and am having trouble. Is it properly supported in 0.16? I'm following Pascal's instructions here but am guessing at the details:

    http://www.rapicorp.com/2012/05/eclipse-based-applications-as-standard.html

And I'm using eclipserun to call the director directly since I also want to build win32 and linux in the normal way.

I'm using the repository created with tycho-p2-repository-plugin in target/repository but it appears to miss the *.executable.cocoa.macosx.x86-bundled dependency. Funny though because I can see it in the p2content.xml file in the target directory, just not in the repo.

We are doing something weird staying with 32-bit x86 if that matters.

BTW, would be great to have this better documented with examples. I can contribute that once I get it working.

For reference, here's some of my pom:

        <plugin>

        <groupId>org.eclipse.tycho.extras</groupId>

        <artifactId>tycho-eclipserun-plugin</artifactId>

        <version>0.16.0</version>

        <configuration>

        <appArgLine>

-destination ${project.build.directory}/products/com.qnx.tools.bbt.ide.e4/macosx/x86/Momentics.app \

-profile DefaultProfile \

-p2.ws cocoa \

-p2.arch x86 \

        </appArgLine>

        </configuration>

Thanks,

Doug.
