Tycho doesn't include root files in updatesite

I'm trying to build an eclipse feature using tycho. It has some binary dependencies defined as rootfiles in the build.properties file:

root.win32.win32.x86=rootfiles/win32/
root=rootfiles/all/

The feature builds fine and has two .zip artifacts for the two root folders I defined.

However, I also build an updatesite for the feature using the eclipse-update-site tycho directive. The update site target folder builds correctly, but the root zips aren't included, just the feature .jar and the plugin .jars.

Is there a way to include root files in update sites using tycho?

Solution

  • Use packaging type eclipse-repository instead, see http://wiki.eclipse.org/Tycho/Packaging_Types#eclipse-repository
