Re: [tycho-user] Building large projects

Hi Jesper,

> I search but couldn't find any documentation for this plugin. 

"mvn help:describe" is your friend:

mvn help:describe -Ddetail
-Dcmd=org.jboss.tools.tycho-plugins:target-platform-utils:mirror-target-to-repo

As you can see, the configuration element you are looking for is called
sourceTargetArtifact or sourceTargetFile (not targetFile).

Neither of these properties can be set on the command line (only
includeSources can, through the given "user property"), but if not set
they will default to the current artifact/project.

Thus,

  mvn
org.jboss.tools.tycho-plugins:target-platform-utils:mirror-target-to-repo -pl
:TARGET_ARTIFACT_ID

should do what you want and mirror the given eclipse-target-definition
project.

Hope this helps.

Andreas
