Introduction

To use the Tycho build extension, add the following configuration in your parent POM:

<properties>
   <tycho-version>2.3.0</tycho-version>
</properties>

<build>
   <plugins>
      <plugin>
         <groupId>org.eclipse.tycho</groupId>
         <artifactId>tycho-maven-plugin</artifactId>
         <version>${tycho-version}</version>
         <extensions>true</extensions>
      </plugin>
   </plugins>
</build>

See the release notes for a list of newer available Tycho versions.

Getting Tycho SNAPSHOTS

If you want to use the latest development version of Tycho, update the tycho-version property accordingly and add the following Maven repository containing the Tycho snapshots in your parent POM:

<pluginRepositories>
   <pluginRepository>
      <id>tycho-snapshots</id>
      <url>https://repo.eclipse.org/content/repositories/tycho-snapshots/</url>
   </pluginRepository>
</pluginRepositories>

If you using the tycho-pomless extension or you want to make the Tycho development version available in all your builds, you need to add the tycho-snapshots repository in your settings.xml instead:

<settings>
   <profiles>
      <profile>
         <id>tycho-snapshots</id>
         <pluginRepositories>
            <pluginRepository>
               <id>tycho-snapshots</id>
               <url>https://repo.eclipse.org/content/repositories/tycho-snapshots/</url>
               <releases>
                  <enabled>false</enabled>
               </releases>
            </pluginRepository>
         </pluginRepositories>
      </profile>
   </profiles>

   <activeProfiles>
      <activeProfile>tycho-snapshots</activeProfile>
   </activeProfiles>

</settings>
