Re: [cdt-dev] IPLog question

Btw I looked at our policy wiki (http://wiki.eclipse.org/CDT/policy) and it has some contradictory statements

Applying the Patch
     ...
  • Set the iplog+ flag for the committed patch (unless submitted by Commiter) - See also Development_Resources/Automatic_IP_Log
  • Check that all non-committed patches marked as obsolite
  • Check that all committed patches are marked iplog-
1st statement here is the opposite of 3rd. How to interpret that?

At the end of the day, will someone sue us for copying someone else's IP? If it's pre-existing IP in the CDT, I wouldn't worry about it.

Elena committed the first of the two patches, which contained most of the work.
I committed the second patch (I guess I should have asked the question before committing, oops),
but that code is really a bunch of copying of existing code for UI tabs to have a slightly modified DSF-GDB version.
So, I think this is safe.
 
As for next time, I'll be more prepared.
 
Thanks

Subject: Re: [cdt-dev] IPLog question

There's a little bit of a committer judgment call when it comes to IP review.  It seems to me that in this case it's obvious to you that the outside contribution is < 200 loc.  BTW, another convenient feature is that if the code was written by a co-worker of committer, than that committer can commit the code without filing a CQ event if it's > 200 loc.  So if Alena was to have committed the patch, you would also be in the clear.

Cheers,
Pawel

Hi,
 
Andy Jin from QNX has contributed a couple of patches for Jtag debugging for DSF-GDB (yeah!).
Those pathes were more than 250 lines but only because there was a lot of code copied from other
files of CDT.
 
What are we supposed to do in those cases?
 
Thanks
 
Marc
