Maven: use Tycho to build the drools eclipse plugin
---------------------------------------------------

                 Key: JBRULES-2505
                 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBRULES-2505
             Project: Drools
          Issue Type: Task
      Security Level: Public (Everyone can see)
          Components: All
    Affects Versions: 5.1.0.M1
            Reporter: Geoffrey De Smet
            Assignee: Geoffrey De Smet
             Fix For: FUTURE


* The drools eclipse plugin should be build with maven perfectly
** Sonatype (the guys behind maven) build tycho specifically for this purpose
** tycho can build headless
*** so the drools eclipse plugin can be done by hudson
* the drools version pom.xml should use "-SNAPSHOT" instead of ".SNAPSHOT"

Outdated blog entry:
  http://www.sonatype.com/people/2008/11/building-eclipse-plugins-with-maven-tycho/
from that page: "Can we build eclipse plugins with maven? yes we can!" 

a open source project that uses maven tycho to build eclipse stuff:
