Description Matthew O'Connor

Build Identifier: 0.13.0

Given an "eclipse-application" packaging pom, I need to be able to add a resource directory to the packaged applications. Tycho doesn't seem to provide any way to do this.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create "eclipse-application" packaging pom.
2. Add what?
3. Run "mvn package".
4. Packaged directories do not contain resource directories.

as per

https://docs.sonatype.org/display/TYCHO/Discussion+on+eclipse-repository+packaging+type+clean-up#Discussiononeclipse-repositorypackagingtypeclean-up-Migrationpathfromeclipseapplication

I don't expect investments into packaging type eclipse-application.

I recommend using packaging type eclipse-repository
http://wiki.eclipse.org/Tycho/Packaging_Types#eclipse-repository which has
support for building .products.

See the example

http://git.eclipse.org/c/tycho/org.eclipse.tycho.git/tree/tycho-demo/itp04-rcp

which builds a product with rootfiles.
