why plugin built via Tycho working with JDT but not CDT - eclipse

I am so frustrated when trying to find out the reason why the Eclipse plugin I built via Tycho is not working in CDT, but working in JDT.
The parent pom.xml looks like the following:
<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd">

And the pom for abc plugin looke like the following

</parent>
<artifactId>com.company.eclipse.plugin.abc</artifactId>
<packaging>eclipse-plugin</packaging>
</project>
Any help is most appreciated.

thanks a lot for helping me. I suspect it is due to the Eclipse for C/C++ is somehow corrupted. So I download a new CDT, and copy the files from the new CDT to old CDT folder by folder, and try start the old CDT to see if the plugin works. After I replaced the "configuration" folder using new downloaded copy, the plugin works. So means something in the configuration folder in the old CDT prevent the plugin from starting. Unfortunately I forgot to backup the old CDT, so now I am not able to re-product the issue to investigate what is wrong in configuration folder.
Closed as cannot reproduce

Unfortunately, including the relevant jars as external jars has not allowed me to create the plugin succesfully so I've tried instead (following the recommendation present on vogella) to export the target platform and create a parent pom and inside it place my plugin project and another project that uses the target platform to manage the dependencies:

However, when I run mvn clean package I get the following exception:

This is because one of the dependencies i.e. org.apache.log4j_1.2.17.2019-11-22 is actually a ddirectory with a log4j-lib plugin inside. This works fine when running the project in the IDE but I can't figure out how to resolve this correctly. Any help would be appreciated!
So the actual solution was to create a new plugin using existing jar archives option. Add that plugin as a dependency to my plugin and add that to the parent pom.xml in the modules section. Required some tinkering with dependencies but adding the resulting built jar files to the dropins folder seemed to have worked for now.

How to build a multiplatform Eclipse update site with Tycho

On my PDE/Tycho Eclipse environment I want to build a plugin of type eclipse-repository which contains 3 features each one for a specific platform.
The eclipse-repository plugin reads all its configuration from a parent plugin which content is the following:

Installing eclipse plug-in built by Tycho

I want to install eclipse plug-in that was build with help of Tycho.
When I call mvn clean install Maven exits with SUCCESS, and in target directory there is .jar file.
I can't make Eclipse to work with this .jar, it says that file could not be found.
Am I missing something here? How to use my tycho built plug-in?

Why is update repo URL not configured on cross platform Tycho build for Windows artifact?

I have a cross-platform Tycho build running on Mac OS X that produces Windows, Mac and a p2 repo outputs.
Generally all is fine except that the Windows RCP does NOT get configured with the update repo URL details from my p2.inf addRepository instructions (and so p2 update fails) - it DOES for the Mac OS X app... which seems suspicious... why one and not the other?!
Is this a Tycho bug anyone might've come across? (I'm currently using Tycho 0.13.0, nervous about switching versions..) Or do I need explicit instructions for this to get applied to the Windows build?
It'll probably help to include some POMs here...

Upgraded Tycho to 0.17.0 but it turns out the issue indeed has nothing to do with Tycho - I realized I've tweaked the location properties on Windows in an attempt to prepare to support installation into c:\Program Files post-XP with UAC:
-Dosgi.instance.area=#user.home/Application Data/myapp
-Dosgi.configuration.area=#user.home/Application Data/myapp/.configuration
However moving the osgi.configuration.area out of the installation folder (which defaults to c:\myapp :P) is what causes my p2 problem.
