The target platform defines the build environment for the developed plug-ins. In the semantics project, the target platform references specific versions of the pragmatics and ELK project.
When does this matter?
Normally you work on your branch which is relatively up to date with the current master.
But sometime one of the following situations might appear:
- The master is changing its target platform but you want to build your branch with the old one (short-term of cause)
- You want to checkout and run an old version/commit of the semantics repository
Note that using the target platform definition in your development eclipse requires an installation with the correct Oomph setup.
