[tycho-user] POM-less target platforms

[Gunnar Wagenknecht <gunnar@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I'm experimenting with POM-less target platforms ind Tycho 2.0:
https://wiki.eclipse.org/Tycho/pomless#Define_target_platform_configuration_pomless

I do have a targetpflatform.target file in a folder called "targetplaform". My understanding of the wiki page is that this should be sufficient. 

I configured the target platform in the parent pom:

<project>
  <parent>
    <groupId>...</groupId>
    <artifactId>super-parent</artifactId>
    <version>1.0.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
  </parent>
  <artifactId>i-am-parent</artifactId>
  <build>
    <plugins>
      <plugin>
        <groupId>org.eclipse.tycho</groupId>
        <artifactId>target-platform-configuration</artifactId>
        <configuration>
          <target>
            <artifact>
              <groupId>...</groupId>
              <artifactId>targetplatform</artifactId>
              <version>${project.version}</version>
            </artifact>
          </target>
        </configuration>
      </plugin>
    </plugins>
  </build>


The build is failing due to the missing target file.


Caused by: java.lang.RuntimeException: Could not resolve target platform specification artifact <groupid>:targetplatform:target:1.0.0

If I replace ${project.version} with 1.0.0-SNAPSHOT (which is the project version inherited from parent) the build succeeds. Is something/someone dropping the SNAPSHOT part of ${project.version}?
