Re: [tycho-user] Nexus-hosted p2 repositories

[Irene Wang <iwang@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Jeff,

Yes, I have <layout>p2</layout> in my <repository> declaration. I also had <releases><enabled>false</enabled></releases> and <snapshots><enabled>true</enabled></snapshots>, but just in case that made a difference, I tested without them. Unfortunately, that didn't change the results.

Is there certain criteria that must be met for a repository to be included during Tycho dependence resolution?

Did you declare the repository with a p2 layout ?

Hello all,

I've been very pleased with how the Nexus Unzip Plugin has been working out for sharing a p2 repository our PDE built dependencies. Once set up, the virtual repository URL works well for resolving Tycho dependencies.

I would now like to use the Nexus P2 Repository Plugin to allow rebuilding individual Tycho-built plugins while resolving their dependencies from bundles previously deployed to Nexus through Tycho.

However, I'm seeing some odd behaviour when I point to the <nexus>/<repo>/.meta/p2 repository URL, which does contain my artifacts in p2 repository format on the file system.

When I include this repository in the eclipse-plugin's POM directly, I see what I would expect in the log:
[DEBUG] Added p2 repository my_repo (http://<nexus>/<repo>/.meta/p2)

However, when I add it to its ancestor POM this Nexus-hosted p2 repository is not listed as "added" in the log. The build then fails due to missing dependencies. Other non-Nexus-hosted p2 repository URLs are inherited fine from this (grand)parent POM, but this <repository> is ignored. I have also tried creating a p2 repository proxy that points to the .meta/p2 URL just to see if it would help, but the results are the same.

Would anyone have an idea why this may be happening?

Thanks a lot in advance,

Irene
