Hi Jim,
Actually putting the eclipse-pde-plugin-jar in my repo is also one of my
goals. The recommendation I offered using the assembly-mode was based
on a 'dirty' environment and once I figured out what was going on, this
will not work as expected.
What I have gone forward with is using a combination of marking
<resources> in the build-section of the pom.xml, utilizing
maven-dependency-plugin to download libs, an ant-call to do a 'pde-prep'
ANT target, and the maven-jar-plugin configuration to include the
MANIFEST. So far, this combination seems to be o.k. but I feel it is
shaky.
This approach I'm actually using the 'mvn deploy' task to put the
pde-plugin into the repo (using the ${artifactId}-${version}.jar
approach, note the dash instead of underscore). I have not solved the
two-places-to-keep-your-version-numbers-in-sync problem however
(plugin.xml and pom.xml).
