[FIXED] Remove timestamp in maven tycho build

Issue

I have a multi module eclipse RCP Application. We are building the application through maven tycho. The build is creating successfully.

In the build folder i have the usual plugins folder which contains all the plugins(both jar packaging and directory packaging) in the project.

The plugins contains timestamp in it.Is there any way to remove the timestamp from the plugin while building. currently it is plugin.name_1.0.0.20200211.jar but i want the plugin to be plugin.name_1.0.0.jar

Solution

Adding a format tag did the trick for me. Pom file snippet is attached.

<plugin>
  <groupId>org.eclipse.tycho</groupId>
  <artifactId>tycho-packaging-plugin</artifactId>
  <version>${tycho-version}</version>
  <configuration>
    <format>''</format>
  </configuration>
</plugin>
