[tycho-user] RCP/Product materialization with features in jar format

[Julien DEHAUDT]

Hi,

I'm setting up an Eclipse RCP build based on Maven/Tycho by following the excellent Vogella article :
http://www.vogella.com/tutorials/EclipseTycho/article.html
All worked like a charm with only a few exceptions for which I found answers.

The only residual -minor- issue is that features are unpacked by tycho-p2-director-plugin:materialize-products during installation.
How can I configure Tycho to install features in jar format ?

Thanks by advance.

I am not aware there is an option to have features installed in jar format.

However you can skip feature installation altogether with
https://eclipse.org/tycho/sitedocs/tycho-p2/tycho-p2-director-plugin/materialize-products-mojo.html#installFeatures

(that means plugins contained in the features making up the product are still installed of course but there is no features/ folder in the product installation directory)

Regards,
Jan
