What was the contents of treaty?

Following the British seizure of the French port of Mahe, Mysorean ruler Hyder Ali opened hostilities against the British in 1779,

Actually Tipu Sultan was a great ruler and could not let the foreigners to rule on his land, he also planted " tree of liberty" so if British did not seize the french port of Mahe, he would revolted against them. Tipu had to sign a treaty in 1784 (treaty of Manglore) and a treaty of seringapatanam in 1799 because nizam and Marathas were united with the British but after the treaty he fought for dignity and died in 1799 in the fourth Anglo-Mysore war.

Thanks savita you explain very well!

Still terms of treaty of mangalore is not clear, please make it clear with reference.

Thanks savita for such explanation.

The Treaty of Mangalore was signed between Tippu Sultan and the British East India Company on 11 March 1784. It was signed in Mangalore and brought an end to the Second Anglo-Mysore War.

Savita was correct to a large extent. But Tipu Sultan died in 2nd war of Anglo-Mysore. Anglo-mysore wars were 4. Hyder Ali son of Tipu Sultan continued the wars and died in 4th war.
