Re: [tycho-user] Tycho 0.13.0, target platform, and m2e

[Eduardo Kortright <EKortright@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

To upgrade to 0.13.0 and beyond, we are going to have to list all dependencies in the .target file.  In the meantime, 0.12.0 still supports the old approach, so we will stay at that version until we can work out all the dependencies in such a way that there are no version conflicts.  This seemed a very difficult thing to do manually for our application when I attempted it, but we may figure out a way to do this later. 

In any case, thank you very much for your answers.

The way that you used target files in 0.10.0, i.e. without units, is no longer supported. The replacement are, as you figured out correctly, repositories in the POM with layout p2.

As Igor already stated, there is no integration between Tycho and PDE workspace target platform configuration. The only way to share this configuration is to use a correct target file, i.e. a target file which is understood by Eclipse PDE. The same file can also be used with Tycho 0.13.0.

Tobias
