How to customize the filename of .zip, when build an Eclipse RCP application with Tycho?

I have an Eclipse RCP application with a product configuration file com.aa.bb.product. The uid of this .product is com.aa.bb.product. When I build it with Tycho, the result is com.aa.bb.product-win32.win32.x86_64.zip.

This filename is too long, what should I configure to specify the filename like "MyProduct.zip"? Or "MyProduct-win32.win32.x86_64.zip", it's acceptable to keep the -win32.win32.x86_64 suffix.

Solution

  • In the pom of the "product" eclipse project:

         <plugin>
        <groupId>org.eclipse.tycho</groupId>
        <artifactId>tycho-p2-director-plugin</artifactId>
        <version>${tycho-version}</version>

        <configuration>
           <formats>
              <win32>zip</win32>
              <linux>tar.gz</linux>
              <macosx>tar.gz</macosx>
           </formats>

           <products>
              <product>
                 <id>xxxxxx</id>
                 <archiveFileName>xxxxxx</archiveFileName>  <---- the name of the archive
                 <rootFolder>xxxxx</rootFolder>
              </product>
           </products>

        </configuration>
{...}

    As an example, you can check thepom.xml of the"product" project for JMSToolBox:
