Hi, For some reasons, I have developed some of my iPOJO components projects using the Eclipse Plugin Development Environment (PDE) and the iPOJO Nature Eclipse plugin [1]. This works really well for development and debugging inside Eclipse.
First problem: about the iPOJO manipulator plug-in To prepare continuous integration of my bundles, I used Tycho that does some wizardry with the Eclipse project files to generate a bundle according to the content of the Manifest. Alas, I can't use the iPOJO manipulator Maven plugin with Tycho. As a result, the bundle Manifest is the manipulated result of the iPOJO Nature Eclipse plug-in, but the classes are still "plain old" ones. I suppose this is due to the Tycho project packaging (packaging: eclipse-plugin), which is different of the Maven bundle plug-in (packaging: bundle). Question is : does iPOJO manipulator plug-in for Maven supports Tycho builds ? If not, is there any plans on updating/forking the plug-in to support Tycho ? Second problem: To simplify the move from "full PDE" development to Tycho, I'm now using the m2e plugin, and its Tycho "m2e connector". The iPOJO Nature plug-in provides a m2e connector for "pure Maven" iPOJO bundle, thanks to Simon [2], but I can't have both a Tycho and an iPOJO m2e connector for the same project. Question is : as the connector seems to be selected by the packaging (eclipse-plugin, eclipse-feature, etc) indicated in the pom file, would it be possible to have a plug-in providing a "eclipse-plugin-ipojo" packaging, which would to the manipulation when called using Maven, and which would be handled by the iPOJO Nature m2e connector when seen by the Eclipse side ?
