| Re: [epp-dev] Archive creation through shell script |
Yes, this is the reason. Some parts of the Java world hadn't heard about proper tar archives (I remember that there is still an open feature request for ant somewhere...) and the Tycho developers were kind enough to fix this. But the fix was too late for the Juno release, or to be more precise, it was too risky for me to change the working build that late in the release cycle.

This may be a left-over from when Tycho's archive did not maintain symbolic links. (Fixed in 0.21, I believe)?
Not sure if there were additional reasons, but know that was one of them.

Subject: [epp-dev] Archive creation through shell script
Sent by: epp-dev-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxx
Hi,
In an attempt to add the creation of a debian package for the CPP
packages [1], I'm perusing through the EPP poms and I notice that the
product archives are created by a shell script (createArchives.sh).
Could someone shed some light on why this is being used instead of tycho
built-in capability to package the products?
Thx
Pascal
