Description Ralf Sternberg CLA 2011-08-15 20:11:18 EDT 
After some experiments, I believe that it's possible to build RAP with Tycho and makes things easier than building with PDE/build. Since I have to re-structure the build for RAP 1.5 anyway, I'll give it a try.

Patch for building RAP (RWT) with Maven / Tycho

The Tycho build depends on an update site containing all required bundles.
This site has to be created in a separate build step.
Comment 2 Ralf Sternberg CLA 2011-10-02 12:43:43 EDT 
The entire build is now done with tycho. Please pay extra attention to any potential regression in the runtime target.

URLs to all build dependencies are now kept directly in the pom.xml files, therefore the BASE_PLATFORM parameter on the build server is not needed anymore.

The org.eclipse.rap.releng project contains a README file that explains how to run the build locally.

Changes are in CVS HEAD.
