I have updated my dependencies.
Hi
Ralph,
I
hope you doing good.
Another
year, another round of updates…
I
try to update Graphiti to 0.19.0 for Eclipse 2022.06
and the update of the simrel project failed again
because BPMN2 Modeler restricts Graphiti to 0.18.0.
Could you please open that up again?
Here’s
the build failure log:
https://ci.eclipse.org/simrel/job/simrel.runaggregator.VALIDATE.gerrit/2838/
My
Gerrit change for the simrel project is
https://git.eclipse.org/r/c/simrel/org.eclipse.simrel.build/+/193534.
Best
regards,
Michael

Betreff: RE: New Graphiti version for
Eclipse 2021-06
Thanks, that
looks good. I was able to install the BPMN Modeler
from that update site into my test Eclipse with
Graphiti 0.18.0.
Opening up the
dependencies is probably a good idea, that would
spare us going through this procedure each year.
It seems that
both OSGI and Eclipse bundles support defining a
minimum version by something like this:
org.eclipse.graphiti;bundle-version="0.18.0"
But I’m not sure
what Maven/Tycho makes out of that, could be that it
interprets it as fixed dependency to just this
version.
What I usually
do (also I found this way back in recommendations on
the internet), is that I set the next mayor version
as upper bound. That allows the required project to
provide bugfixes and minor updates, but since the
mayor version needs to be increased for breaking or
API changes would still be a safety net for such
cases. The dependency would the look like this:
org.eclipse.graphiti;bundle-version="[0.18.0,1.0.0)"
or maybe
org.eclipse.graphiti;bundle-version="[0.18.0,2.0.0)"
As Explanation
for the syntax: the rectangular brackets “[“ or “]”
mean including this version, the round brackets “(“
or “)” mean excluding this version.
As explanation
why using version 2 as excluded upper limit might be
better: there have been already discussions in the
past started from Eclipse side (Wayne Beaton) if
Graphiti should not move out of incubation. It might
be that we need to do that soon, so maybe directly
using 2.0.0 as the excluded upper limit would make
sense. In case we will do that and leave incubation,
Graphiti would update to 1.0.0 without any changes
to the API. The best guarantee for that is my lack
of time I can spend on the project and basically
having no further active committers any more…. ☹)
Best regards,
Michael
Hi Michael,
the build was successful and a new
updated version is now provided
http://download.eclipse.org/bpmn2-modeler/updates/stable/2021-06/1.5.3/
Can you verify if this is what you
expect?
Another question: I am using the
bundle-version
[0.14.0,0.18.0)
Why should I not change this in
way that I say : use graphiti version 0.18.0 or
above. I think I can trust in your work and there is
no need to set a fixed upper version number.
What would be the correct pattern
to describe this in a manifest file?
Best regards
Ralph

HI Ralph,
Thanks for
your help in this. Yes, this is what I meant.
I created the
new Graphiti version 0.18.0 just this week, so far
there was just the 0.17.0 version in the simrel,
that is why simrel so far picked up that version.
Your build
probably points to our release update site for
0.17.0:
http://download.eclipse.org/graphiti/updates/0.17.0
and because of that uses the older version. The
0.18.0 milestone update site is at
http://download.eclipse.org/graphiti/updates/milestones/S-0.18.0M3-202105181817
, there is not yet a release update site.
Yes, the
simrel stuff is not easy to understand. It
basically tries to combine the given individual
projects into one thing that can work together by
checking what is available on the update sites of
the individual projects and if the restrictions
the projects have in their manifests can get
resolved using the given update sites.
Best regards,
Michael
Hi Michael,
what you mean is that I should
change in my MANIFEST.MF files lines like:
org.eclipse.graphiti;bundle-version="[0.14.0,0.18.0)",
org.eclipse.graphiti.ui;bundle-version="[0.14.0,0.18.0)",
into
org.eclipse.graphiti;bundle-version="[0.14.0,0.19.0)",
org.eclipse.graphiti.ui;bundle-version="[0.14.0,0.19.0)",
...right?
I wonder why my build took the
0.17.0 version instead of 0.18.0. Or is this just
because I build it some weeks ago?
Sorry for the stupid question,
but the the entire simrel build process is still a
mystery to me.
I already opened a bug report (https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=573649)
and I will change my MANIFEST.MF files. So you can
monitor my changes.
Best regards

The open
Gerrit change for Graphiti simrel is:

Could you as
last year push a new version of the SOA-BPMN2
Modeler that allows Graphiti 0.18.0?
The
difference between Graphiti 0.17.0 and 0.18.0
are very small, there are just a couple of bug
fixes, no changes in the API or in behavior.
