Re: [babel-dev] Build process, p2 metadata

Team,
1) +1 for pulling the update site from the download page and
replacing it with a brief explanation of the issues we are having
(maybe pointing to bug #274025).
Agreed. I'll do just that.
3) I would be willing to try to apply the patch from bug #274025 to
Eclipse. If anyone knows of a good tutorial or wiki page that details
any of the steps in the process of compiling Eclipse that would be
great help.
We'd likely just need to recompile that specific class and re-jar that
plugin. Sounds like a fun experiment.
I am also very interested in the steps to deploy the language packs as
I am starting to look into this very issue for the EPP team. Would it
be possible to develop a common deploy script (I know this is out side
of the scope of Babel)?
I'm not sure I understand 'deploy the language packs' .. You mean just
unzipping them in the dropins folder?
D.
Thanks,

Team,
The 'new' build system has been working good for a couple of weeks
now, and you can see/test the nightly (N2009...) and weekly (I2009)
builds from the build server
<http://build.eclipse.org/technology/babel/>. I'll be writing a
quick promote script so that we can update our real downloads site.
The last release build was done over a month ago.
Because of https://bugs.eclipse.org/274025, we still do not have any
p2 metadata, and I believe this is problematic. From here, I can
think of a few options:
1. Effective immediately, we should perhaps remove the Update Site
URLs from our Babel download page
<http://www.eclipse.org/babel/downloads.php>, and only link to the
ZIPs instead, since installing the ZIP files seems to work (whereas
p2 complains of missing dependencies if using the update site).
Thoughts?
2. Our update site has 942 features and 42,000+ plugins. Perhaps
this is not optimal. Thoughts?
3. Sean submitted a patch to bug 274025, but that code will not make
it into Eclipse 3.5. I am open to running a patched version of
Eclipse to build the metadata, if someone can produce it.
I'll keep you informed on the promote script.
Denis
