I have a build for a single-sourced RCP/RAP Eclipse feature project that uses maven profiles to either build RAP or RCP bundles, fragments and features.
This works reasonably well. If I include my update site project as module in the above build's parent POM I can also easily build a platform-specific update-site using either "eclipse-update-site" (or "eclipse-repository") packaging.
However, I was wondering, if there is a way to
- build RCP target platform > publish to local repo
- build RAP target platform > publish to local repo
- run build for RCP (target platform from step 1) > publish to local repo
- run build for RAP (target platform from step 2) > publish to local repo
- run build for update site only, include feature for RAP and for RCP (not compiling anything, just assembling from 1+2)
I could successfully execute steps 1-4, but not 5, because Tycho was trying to resolve the features referenced by the category.xml with a different qualifier.
If I understand update sites/p2 repositories correctly, it should be possible to offer any artifacts / bundles / features in various flavors, right?
How can I solve this, or rather: can I have a single tycho build that runs the above build steps consecutively with the same qualifier for all?
Addendum: This existing question goes in the same direction and suggests to "install the (feature) Tycho project(s) into ... local Maven repository". That's actually what I'm doing when I run 1. and 2. after each other, specifiying the same local repo for both. But then 3. fails to pull the referenced artifacts from there, because the qualifier is different (two distinct reactor builds). Running everything in the same reactor build would be totally fine for me, but I think that's not possible, because there are different target platforms involved.
I think the solution there is pretty close to what I need, but I don't understand how my category.xml (or site.xml) and the extra dependencies in POM work together. Do I have to abandon category.xml altogether and respecify all my dependencies in the eclipse-repository POM?
My build roughly looks like this:
