This small maven plugin contains two enhancements for Eclipse RCP builds for Mac OS X:

• Updates Info.plist file to add Retina support
• Adds missing “-startup” parameter in eclipse.ini file during publishing product using p2. Without this arg some important p2 operations, such as updates, fail in resulting RCPs.

The plugin itslef provide a single goal ‘patch-ini-file’ and has no configuration at all - instead it relies on configuration of org.sonatype.tycho:tycho-p2-director-plugin.

To use it, modify your pom so that ‘patch-ini-file’ goal is executed between materialize-products and publish-products goals of of tycho-p2-director-plugin.

Example build element from POM:

<build>
  <plugins>
    <plugin>
      <groupId>${tycho-groupid}</groupId>
      <artifactId>tycho-p2-director-plugin</artifactId>
      <version>${tycho-version}</version>
      <executions>
        <execution>
          <id>materialize-products</id>
          <phase>package</phase>
          <goals>
            <goal>materialize-products</goal>
          </goals>
        </execution>
        <execution>
          <id>archive-products</id>
          <phase>verify</phase>
          <goals>
            <goal>archive-products</goal>
          </goals>
        </execution>
      </executions>
      <configuration>
        <products>
          <product>
            <id>com.xored.q7.cloud.server.product</id>
          </product>
        </products>
      </configuration>
    </plugin>
    <plugin>
      <groupId>com.xored.tycho</groupId>
      <artifactId>eclipse-ini-patcher</artifactId>
      <version>0.0.1-SNAPSHOT</version>
      <executions>
        <execution>
          <id>materialize-products</id>
          <phase>package</phase>
          <goals>
            <goal>patch-ini-file</goal>
          </goals>
        </execution>
      </executions>
    </plugin>
  </plugins>
</build>

Here the materialize-products goal is moved to verify stage (instead of package stage by default) so that I can insert my goal before it. However probably there’s another way to specify the desired execution order.
