de.softproject.xe.standalone.feature is my overall feature contained in the .product file. I don't know why it looks for a feature group here, the feature itself certainly exists.

I have a .cspex adapted from the Buckminster mailapp tutorial to compile a product.
Launching the product from the .product works.

What I do:
- 'site.p2' followed by a
- 'create.product' which fails here.

Any ideas?

best regards as always

Thomas

Hi Tomsen,

I had similar problem in my build - product launches but create.product fails. Do I understand correctly that your product has dependency on de.softproject.xe.standalone.feature? If it does then it's certainly dependency somewhere else - another feature may be? Hard to tell without seeing the whole product layout.

HTH,
Alex

In p2 terms a feature ends with the suffix 'feature.group', that's
nothing to worry about, just a name.

About your main problem, what feature are you actually invoking site.p2
on? You should be aware that buckminster's default settings regard the
feature you invoke that action on as a 'grouping feature'. One that is
not actually to be built, but only decides what is to be part of the p2
repository. Therefore if you invoke site.p2 on
de.softproject.xe.standalone.feature the p2 repository will not contain
the de.softproject.xe.standalone.feature but only the includes of that
feature. To change these default settings use the property:
site.include.top=true

Hope that helps and best regards,
Johannes

Thanks, Johannes, this is not the problem. I have a releng feature which keeps all buckminster artefacts and points to the product feature. I call site.p2 from the releng feature.

No, it turns out that Alex is right Very Happy we had problems in the build also when trying to export the product from the product page. I am in the process to fix this and report back when I'm done.

thanks a lot again

Hi, just to wrap this up, we had a build problem in the pde build to start with (came in when the feature structure was changed for the Buckminster Build and no-one tested the product export since the start for debug and runnign worked) and a problem with target definition. The process of defining a target definition seems unstable; when you add and remove locations/feature groups the resolved TP in the IDE does not seem to reflect what has changed. I got unresolved references of the weird kind like expected was jdt.3.5.0 something but the plugins in the site.p2 were jdt.3.5.2. I don't understand what is going on there. This might be a non-issue when going to Hudson since the TP can be completely constructed on the fly there if I understand correctly. In the IDE Buckminster does not really seem add stuff to the TP or at least I don't see that happening correctly.

Having said this much for building a 3.5 app on Helios Buckminster, I have a working build for 3.5 now on a 3.5 Buckminster running in the IDE.

I will now go on to test this with Hudson. Wish me luck Smile

Hi Thomas,

Regarding TP in Eclipse. I've noticed too sometimes that when I change my TD and reload, changes are not always taking place. Because of this I developed kind of habit to shutdown Eclipse and restart with eclipse -clean, reloading TP after startup. If I don't and changes are not taken then I can really setup myself for trouble if the problem was "caching" rather than something else - and thus I can start changing stuff around without real need for it. Wash -> Rinse -> Repeat I guess Smile

About TP in Hudson. If you already don't have this in place, I suggest you create a separate job for TP and reuse the job in your builds. This has two advantages: first, you can independently build you TP, second your builds are faster because TP does not need to be imported on each build but reused. You can reference http:// www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php?t=msg&th=163429&sta rt=0&S=42b5f47586ad19bd17a9f9fe0e0cb93c post for information on how to do it.

Good Luck,
Alex

Two additional comments on this approach:
1. If you do not delete the materialized TP after the build, the
execution time should be rather similar
2. So far the Target Platform Publisher does not work in a distributed
environment, so it's important that the TP job runs on the same physical
machine as all the builds that use this TP.

Best regards,
Johannes

I can confirm this. One has to restart eclipse rather a lot after some
changes to the target platform (I do it without -clean). I never managed
to pin down the problems exactly but I have the feeling that sometimes
pde does not notice a change and sometimes it's buckminster that
doesn't. But for normal operations like create new workspace, create new
empty target directory, materialize stuff, it works very well.

Thanks Johannes,

I'll have to double check on #1, I was certain that with importtargetdefintion it was always a bit slower.
Thanks for mentioning #2.

Thanks again to all.

I have succeeded in building the TP in a separate job now. I have some problems concerning editing Hudson jobs and getting the changes in the build. I'll open new topics for these.
Previous Topic:Using workspace relative target definition
Next Topic:Changes in a Hudson job config don't show up in the build
