Re: [eclipse-dev] Source builds available


Interesting question...

After we declared R2.0 "real" we actually did version the plugins in the repository with the tag R2_0.  Until then there was no R2_0 tag.

The source build scripts where generated at build time.  So the fetch scripts you have are the same ones that built GM6 before it was promoted to R2.0.

So we could go and regenerate source build zips that contained the R2_0 tag for all the plugins.  However, each plugin would still have to appear in the fetch scripts since, unfortunately, not all the CVS projects are part of the R2_0 build.  I'm not sure how I feel about this.  As it stands currently, I know the fetch scripts you are running are the ones used to generate the build.  If I change them, that will not be precisely true.  Granted the change is trivial but it seems the trivial changes are always the ones that smoke you.

In the past (and currently) we have a build strategy that gives control over the tags to the plugin owners.  The plugin owners then "release" the desired versions of their plugins to the map files in org.eclipse.releng.  I don't think we want to change this *but* it might be a good idea if each Integration build was tagged by the builder, at build time with the build name (I20020714).  This could be the best of both worlds.  It allows plugin owners to have "total" control over the tag names and what is released to the build, but also provides the ability of easily loading plugin versions matching a particular build after the build has happened.

What do people think about this?

I'm using eclipse-sourceBuild-srcFetch-2.0.zip.

There seems to be a bewildering variety of tags used for the various
components; I've attached a list to the end of this mail.

What is the reason for this?  Is there any reason not to tag the whole
source tree with "Eclipse-2.0-release" and then check out everything
against the same tag?

Thanks,
Andrew.
