Re: [tycho-user] having Maven provision the eclipse target platform directly from a Maven repository
|
AH.
Unchecked group by category, and suddenly everything is there! That was my issue.
Our structure looks like this, roughly:
We have hundreds of Eclipse plugins and features that are used to build dozens of RCP applications.
These are grouped by area / package name and separated into logical git repositories.
We then have Bamboo set up to build each area, which might include a number of plugins and features. RCP builds are done separately by Bamboo.
Snapshots and then releases are pushed to our Nexus repository.
What I am going for is a system where my developers can follow a simple process to get the source code for the plugins they need to edit for the RCP application they are building. I am using repo from Google to clone multiple repositories, and then I was planning to set up a target platform and a psf (project set) to simplify importing just the needed projects into the Eclipse workspace.
The issue I'm emailing about is provisioning the target platform.
Thanks so very much for all the assistance.
