 described in the PDE documentation</a>:</p>
 <ol>
 <li>Explicit -DforceContextQualifier command line parameter</li>
 <li>forceContextQualifier from
 ${project.baseDir}/build.properties</li>
 <li>A time stamp in the form YYYYMMDDHHMM (e.g. 200605121600)</li>
 </ol>
 <br />
 <br />

 <p>The generated qualifier is assigned to
 <code>buildQualifier</code> project property. The unqualified
 project version is assigned to <code>unqualifiedVersion</code>
 project property. The unqualified version is calculated based on
 <code>${project.version}</code> and can be used for any Tycho
 project and regular Maven project. Different projects can use
 different formats to expand the timestamp (not recommended). The
 concatenation of <code>${unqualifiedVersion}</code> and
 <code>${buildQualifier}</code>, if not empty, is assigned to the
 project property <code>qualifiedVersion</code>.</p>
 <p>The timestamp generation logic is extensible. The primary use
 case is to generate build version qualifier based on the timestamp
 of the last project commit. Here is example pom.xml snippet that
 enables custom timestamp generation logic</p>

 <td><p>This mojo calculates build timestamp as the latest timestamp of
 the project itself and timestamps of bundles and features directly
 included in the project. This is meant to work with custom
 timestamp providers and generate build qualifier based on build
 contents, i.e. the source code, and not the time the build was
 started; rebuilding the same source code will result in the same
 version qualifier.</p>
 <p>Timestamp of included bundles and features is determined by
 parsing their respective version qualifiers. Qualifiers that cannot
 be parsed are silently ignored, which can result in old version
 qualifier used even when aggregator project contents actually
 changed. In this case aggregator project timestamp will have to be
 increased manually, using artificial SCM commit for example.</p>
 <p>Qualifier aggregation is enabled only for projects with custom
 timestamp provider, i.e. &lt;timestampProvider&gt; is set in
 pom.xml to a value other than "default". The default build
 timestamp provider uses build start time as build timestamp, which
 should be newer or equal than timestamp of any included
 bundle/feature project, which makes qualifier aggregation
 redundant.</p></td></tr>
