How to change the qualifier in the file names of plugins and features

Question

I am trying to rename my artifacts in the repository folder of my eclipse-repository module. At the moment they are auto generated like ...1.0.0.v20130315-1927.jar.

I haven't found any configuration parameter that works. I have tried to use the qualifier setting in the configuration (see tycho-p2-repository-plugin), but it doesn't work.

                <artifactId>tycho-p2-repository-plugin</artifactId>
                <version>${tycho-version}</version>

                <configuration>
                    <qualifier>abcd</qualifier>
                </configuration>
            </plugin>
        </plugins>
    </build>
</project>

Answer 1

My solution is to use the tycho-packaging-plugin. Only "disadvantage" changing the build qualifier needs to rebuild all modules contained by the repository.

Here the part out of my parent pom.xml:

<plugin>
    <groupId>org.eclipse.tycho</groupId>
    <artifactId>tycho-packaging-plugin</artifactId>
    <version>${tycho.version}</version>
    <dependencies>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>org.eclipse.tycho.extras</groupId>
            <artifactId>tycho-buildtimestamp-jgit</artifactId>
            <version>${tycho-extras.version}</version>
        </dependency>
    </dependencies>
    <configuration>
        <strictBinIncludes>false</strictBinIncludes>
        <format>'rev${rev}-'yyyyMMdd-HHmm</format>
    </configuration>
</plugin>

try this:

mvn -Dtycho.mode=maven org.eclipse.tycho:tycho-versions-plugin:set-version -DnewVersion=13.3.0.1-SNAPSHOT

or simply search text "1.0.0-SNAPSHOT" and replace it with "13.3.0.1" using Actual Search and Replace tool.
