Hi Eric,
I am interested in attending this. Is there a dial in no?
Thanks,
Mitesh

All,
I am wrapping up the proof-of-concept work on generating
EclipseLink bundles with a manifest first approach.
To reiterate to work done thus far:
- I have investigated the suitability for automation of several
available systems that would allow manifest first OSGi bundle
generation (PDEBuild, Athena, Buckminster, Tycho/Maven).
- At this stage the focus has been on Tycho, which is a Maven
plugin designed to generate Eclipse OSGi bundles, features and P2
sites.
- On a separate branch and utilizing Maven 3, I have:
- configured most of our OSGi bundles to build using Tycho, and
generate Eclipse style source bundles (exceptions being asm,
antlr, javax.persistence, and oracle).
- modified the existing ant build to call maven to generate the
bundles and then proceed with the existing build process
(generation of the eclipselink.jar, javadoc, etc)
I will be holding brief meeting on Monday at 2p to discuss the
Tycho work and how it will impact our current build system, answer
questions, and discuss implementation. Let me know if you plan on
attending and need room or dial-in info.
In addition, while doing the Tycho work I was also tasked with
determining the feasibility of moving our entire build to Maven.
This is not considered as part of the same project nor this
release cycle, but it is relevant to also discuss what this would
entail and its effects upon the team and EclipseLink community.
Below is the agenda for the meeting:
- Maven/Tycho overview
- Our planned usage
- Planned changes
- resource dir structure
- manifest changes
- build-dependency repo
- asm/antlr generation.
- Questions
- Maven Adoption
- what will need to change?
- pros/cons
- Discussion
