Import Lastest Feature as part of TP [message #868599]

Hi

What is the best / easiest way to create a TP such that it contains the latest versions of the features / plugins that it consists of ?

I've seen this tutorial hptt://wiki.eclipse.org/Building_an_RCP_application_with_hudson_(Buckminster)

According to this I'll need a new job that is dedicated to building the TP for every product and feature that I currently build.

Is this the only way to get the LATEST versions in my TP?
Is this what everyone else is doing or is there a simpler way ???

Many many thanks in advance.

There's no need to delete the TP between builds unless the products/features that you are building are incompatible and
require different TP's. Create a CSPEC that includes all your features and products, resolve and materialize that, and
you'll get a TP that contains the latest. It's as simple as that. The latest in this case is of course the latest
possible. Your products and features might have upper bounds on version ranges that prevents the absolute latest from
being picked.
