One thing I just found out which seems to be a bug: When I do a 'mvn install' on my multi-module pom, I get this in the update-site project: [INFO] Installing /mydir/myproject/target/site/site.xml to /home/me/.m2/repository/my/group/myproject/1.0-SNAPSHOT/myproject-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar
I verified that the .jar file is actually the site.xml.

Igor,

ideally, I can specify a set of dependencies to plugins to go into an update site under a given feature and Tycho generates that feature on the fly and resolves all the plugins from the Maven repository and/or targetPlatform. And there should be an option to transitively sweep all referenced plugins. Something what the maven-war-plugin can do.

On a more practical level: I think I have now something working, but the site gets created only if I have all the features and their plugins in the same reactor via a multi-module pom. Tycho does not seem to resolve the references from the Maven repository.

I'm also a little unclear how my SNAPSHOT versions should be specified in the site.feature.version attribute.

Max,

Can you explain in some details what you are trying to achieve?

Right now, Tycho follows Eclipse/PDE approach for update sites, i.e. developers creates update site project and site.xml with all features to be provided by the update site. Then tycho collects all included features and plugins during the build. I think this is not what you ask, but I need to understand your scenario to see if I can suggest anything better.

Max,

I am not sure what you mean. Are these plugin projects or jars?
These are Eclipse plugins.
Do you have site.xml or want tycho to generate one for you?
I want Tycho to generate it.
Do you have feature(s) that include the plugins?
I don't have a feature. I suppose I have to create a Maven project for that.

You know that tycho supports building eclipse update site projects, right?
I have a vague understanding of that, but I couldn't find an example how to do it.

Is there a way to create an Eclipse update site using Maven/Tycho given a set of plugins in a directory?
Thanks!
