[tycho-user] Code signing on OS X before zipping a package

[Valerio Santinelli <tanis@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

I've opened this bug on Bugzilla: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=393571

Basically, when you compile an app for OS X Mountain Lion, you have to sign it with an Apple Developer ID.

To sign the app you have to use the codesign tool included in XCode, which is a command line utility.

I run it through the maven-exec-plugin, but I couldn't find a phase that sits after the creation of the .app and before the creation of the zip file and before the creation of the zip of the executable in repository/binary.

Is there a phase that I am missing or should there be a new phase to do that kind of operation?

Thanks for the help!

Valerio
