Hi,
I've not got myself onto the learning curve for Buckminster yet, I've
restricted myself to some coffee and lunch sessions looking at some of
the demos you've done.
I was looking at Bucky because I've (finally) moved our project onto a
more professional footing, doing some continuous integration (using
Luntbuild, and Eclipse-exported Ant files).
Seeing that we've got the thinking around E4 going on, then I think
there's a big area where Eclipse/JDT is awkward, and that is: continuous
integration.
Perhaps CI would be a good target for e4 (or should I say e4.01, as e4
was released on 1st April ;), and it seems that Buckminster is a key
part of the system (in that you have UI tools, plus headless build
capability).
Is this part of your vision for Buckminster?
I'd much rather be doing something along those lines, than submitting a
trail of patches to Export->Ant buildfile, which is currently the case.
As some background, I picked the Ant export route as I had plain old
java projects, but now I've OSGied (thus now have a PDE export bug to
resolve :)
Looking around, it certainly appears that some fast track to CI is
needed, given that there are a mix of implementations across different
Eclipse projects.
Cheers,
Neale

Hi Neale,
We are certainly thinking about CI and any help and/or ideas of how to best integrate Buckminster
with tools like CruiseControl, Hudson, Continuum, Luntbuild, etc. would be greatly appreciated. This
is an area where we could really use some help.
E4 is on our radar but we have no concrete plans yet.
Kind Regards,
Thomas Hallgren
