Hi,

I wonder if someone can point me to the build map files for ecf
ganymede build? They are not published at ECF download page.

Thanks

Eugene

They are all in the org.eclipse.ecf.releng.maps project:

http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/index.cgi/org.eclipse.ecf/bui lds/org.eclipse.ecf.releng.maps/?root=Technology_Project

The one to care about WRT Ganymede build is the ecf.core.map.

We've been using the p2_workaround branch (because of the 6 ecf plugins
now in SDK), the p2_workaround_1 tag.

Our build does textual substitution to replace the @CVSTag@ with the
appropriate tag.

So, we back to the original question how to get the actual map files
used to build ganymede artifacts. In other words, what substitution been
used for ganymede build?

It would be handy to publish the map files used to produce each build
like it is done by Platform, EMF, WTP and number of other Eclipse
projects (see corresponding download pages).

Thanks

Eugene

Eugene,

Of course if all the projects used a common build infrastructure then it
gets easier for everyone to have the same set of nice features. Maybe
one day we'll have such a much-needed thing...

Ed, the current situation with builds is actually quite scary. I've
looked trough several projects released for Ganymede and it is shocking
to see what they have in their maps files. I see modules built from HEAD
(i.e. no tag), modules that are not using anonymous connection (i.e.
:ext:username@) and even modules that are build from non Eclipse CVS.
Even Platform have those issues and at minimum it means that those
builds are not reproducible.

regards,
Eugene

Eugene,

The state of builds is woeful. It's a black art. Maybe the
newly-created, just-announced common build component will help bring
order to the chaos. I think things are the way they are, because
builds are never seen as the top priority even though they should be.
People are quite happy to butcher up a complete disaster and when it
finally produces something that looks okay declare victory and move on
to more important things. The difficulty of producing builds is a major
barrier for folks starting new projects at Eclipse and although the EMO
was asked by the board to look into providing infrastructure for build
support, the lack of resource has made progress on that haltingly slow...

I thought I pretty much said already...@CVStag@ is the desired CVS tag
:). We've been using p2_workaround_1 as the version of the map files
themselves.

If you want to reuse the actual scripts that do this, they are available
in <ecf>/builds/org.eclipse.ecf.releng.server (along with instructions
for setting up/running, etc).

Since all build materials (other than map files) are available in the
org.eclipse.ecf.releng.server project, making them more accessible has
not been a priority for us relative to getting the actual Ganymede build
done. If you or others want to contribute resources to do it, we will
happily help.

Ed and Eugene,

+1 for state of builds being woeful.

+1 for resources having anything to do with projects working together
instead of as independent units...because IMHO as long as the projects
operate independently (by necessity rather than choice in most cases),
what we have will be the result.

BTW, just for the record...ECF does have a reproducible build...although
reproducing it is not nearly as easy as it might/could be (which I
suspect is true for Platform, EMF, etc.).

Scott

All I am asking is to publish map file corresponding to the ecf
builds. See for example platform download page at:

http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/drops/R-3.4-20 0806172000/index.php

and their maps file linked from the above page:

http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/drops/R-3.4-20 0806172000/directory.txt

Basically that would allow to get the code for given binary build, to
allow to see the source or debug/fix given issues.

But if you are saying that maps files can't be published I will have
to live with that. It is just even you can't say what code been used to
build binaries for Ganymede, since there is no tag and just some
randomly named branch, which can't be used to represent the locked down
version of the code. So, the end result is that code is not auditable.

regards,
Eugene

And why cannot you do the same thing (get the maps and source) directly
from CVS for a given version tag?

I'm not saying that they can't be published via html...I'm saying we're
not going to do the work of the publishing via web given other
priorities. Further...all the necessary materials can be retrieved via
CVS (more work admittedly, but completely doable) and used to do
whatever you want.


It is just even you can't say what code been used to

Eugene there is a tag: v20080623-0046

and just some

See tag above...and have a ball. If you want easier access then see
previous recommendation.

The problem is that tag is not in ECF's maps files and can be only
consumed by ECF's own build scripts.

I understand and perfectly respect that.

Understood. Like I said, it would be really nice if evaluated maps are
published, and I hope this would be addressed at some point.

Thanks

It's true that the tag is not in ECF's maps files, but this doesn't mean
that only ECF's build scripts can consume the map file. That is, a
trivial search and replace with a given tag would make the map file
consumable by other build systems. Of course this trivial search and
replace is all the ecf build does.

Me too. We are/would be completely in support of the renewed build
consolidation efforts:
http://wiki.eclipse.org/Build_Workshop_2:_Build_Harder

....and hope to address this and other common requirements without having
to do all the work ourselves (which is out of the question given the
project's resources). This is especially true given the move to p2/away
from features, etc.

I would urge you to support this effort as well, and provide them with
this requirement (map files in certain easily consumable format and
published to web or elsewhere) so that it doesn't get lost.
