Re: [tycho-user] What's org.eclipse.tycho:target-platform-configuration about?

I think the configuration is retrieved and managed by another Mojo. I think Tycho is using Maven3 lifecycle extensions, may be it is done during this processing

Hm, ok. But it's no-op mojo that does nothing. How is it storing config info? You've trigger my Maven brain here...

As Maven person I did help:describe on the mojo, but it doesn't list any params (as there aren't any declared) which makes me wonder.

No,

this MOJO is here only to store configuration information (Eclipse target platform information) that is used by other Tycho MOJOs. It is not legacy at all, I would say it's one of the central piece of Tycho !!!

Being a Maven person I'm trying to understand the Maven configuration
of projects using Tycho. Looking at examples (inluding m2e) I see that
org.eclipse.tycho:target-platform-configuration is bound to the
lifecycle and also most often has some configuration. But when I look
at the code I only see a no-op Mojo (without configuration options of
course).

Am I missing something here, or is the usage of this plugin simply
some legacy stuff and not needed any more?

"Legacy code" often differs from its suggested alternative by actually working and scaling.
