Sorry, I missed the JIRA number in #1. You may find details about #1 in https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMODEVTOOLS-649
2010/7/9 Delos <[email protected]> > As part of GEP, maven-eclipsepde-plugin helps to convert eclipse plugins to > maven dependencies and add them into artifact dependency list. So without > it, GEP can't be compiled successfully. The plugin is in version 1.0. But > now, some new requirements come out that the plugin didn't take into account > before. I'm afraid we have to update the plugin to accommodate new > requirements. > > 1) Eclipse on Mac > There are two edition of eclipse on Mac, carbon and cocoa. From Eclipse > 3.6, only cocoa is supported. But maven-eclipsepde-plugin can only > recognize carbon eclipse on Mac, so we have to fix it to make GEP build > successfully on Mac. You may see details in > > 2)Optional bundles > There are some optional required bundles in MANIFEST.MF for some extended > functions, such as TPTP and Free Aires Tools. They're not mandatory for GEP > and actually GEP don't need these bundles in build process. They're marked > as "optional" because user may get these extra plugins by themselves for > some advanced functions. So these optional bundles shouldn't block the build > process of GEP. Unfortunately, current maven-eclipsepde-plugin does block > GEP build process because of these optional bundles. > > Because of these new requirements, I suggest we release an updated > maven-eclipsepde-plugin with version 1.1. Any objection? > > -- > Best Regards, > > Delos > -- Best Regards, Delos
