Re: [tycho-user] How can I help to fix a bug?

Hi Lars,

I didn't test running my patch without a product file, but after
taking a look at my code I'm quite sure that it works with any number
(including none) of product files. I will talk briefly about our ant
based workaround in my talk "Release Engineering with tycho and p2" at
our Berlin DemoCamp and we use a regex instead of a XSLT to update the
product version ;-)

Cheers,
Matthias
