I know this topic has been brought up before, but what would you guys
recommend as a continuous integration server for RCP related projects ?

I've tried to use CruiseCOntrol but the setup effort was huge when
taking into consideration how PDE does it's product build and export and
how to automate it. I'd love to hear recommendations (for free or paid
products) and best practices.

Thanks in advance,
Ricardo Cabral

Ricardo,

Check our Parabuild at http://www.viewtier.com/products/parabuild.htm

Parabuild takes 3 minutes to install and 10-15 minutes to the first build. It is free for open source projects. I beleive RCP qulifies as such.

Regards,

CruiseControl is somewhat of a defacto standard for doing continuous builds. However, continuum (http://maven.apache.org/continuum/) will work with both maven and ant build files, so you can set up your server using that as well. You have to launch it via a shell script that emulates ant but runs the Eclipse antRunner instead; I've made eant.zip available from http://www.rcpapps.org/EclipseCon2006/ where I presented a tutorial on automated builds and continuous integration tools.

Hi Alex

I was interested in reviewing your tutorial presentation on automated builds from EclipseCon2006, but when I click on the link to your presentation from the EclipseCon page ( http://eclipsezilla.eclipsecon.org/php/attachment.php?bugid= 18) it just comes back with an empty page. Do you know if you have a copy of it somewhere else, or can that link be fixed?

Thanks
Martin

You should be able to download it from Eclipsezilla directly:

Actually, you can see Parabuild building some well-known open source projects here:
