I've figured out what the problem was. I build RCP applications with
maven, using the following pattern:
- there's a top POM that runs the entire build process as a
multi-project
- the child projects are:
- A project that zips up the plug-in sources from their perforce
workspace
- A project that matches source and configuration to fit the
pde-maven-plugin projects
- A project that builds the PDE target platform
- A pde-maven-plugin super POM that sets common values for the
pde-maven-plugin and runs the different platform builds
The project that was still built with eclipse 3.2.2 was added as a child
of the pde-maven-plugin super POM, and values overriden, as well as
getting its own separate PDE target platform, built as its own child
project (and depending on it, to get the right build order).
My problem was caused by that the PDE target platform was being
specified in two places in the pde-maven-plugin super POM, and
that I had only overridden one of them in the 3.2.2 based child POM.
The configuration in the child now looks like this:
<plugin>
<groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
<artifactId>pde-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<extensions>true</extensions>
<configuration>
<pdeBuildVersion>3.2.1.r321_v20060823</pdeBuildVersion>
<eclipseInstall>${basedir}/eclipse_pde_target_platform/target/eclipse</eclipseInstall>
<buildProperties>
<baseLocation>${basedir}/eclipse_pde_target_platform/target/eclipse</baseLocation>
</buildProperties>
</configuration>
...
When I only overrode the <eclipseInstall> setting, I got the above error
message. When I added <buildProperties><baseLocation/></buildProperties>
it built successfully.
With only <eclipseInstall> set, the correct target platform was used for
the pde:clean-pde goal, while the pde:build-pde goal used the
<baseLocation> setting of the parent (which is currently based on
eclipse 3.3.2).
