[mdt-ocl.dev] M6/M7 interim Examples builds
|
Hi All
Very impressive speed on getting M6 out, though I think somehow you
managed to promote before EMF. Did the release provoke the temporary
buckybuild failure?
--
Now we can sort out what to do about builds to support the OCL Examples
Editor.
a) The approach that half works in
https://build.eclipse.org/hudson/job/cbi-m2m-qvtd-0.8-nightly/79/
Build against the IMP Update Site. This successfully compiles and packs
an Update Site but fails prior to testing since the p2 install fails.
The update site could be manually archived, but users need to install
IMP Runtime first before installing MDT/OCL Examples.
It may be that IMP fixes
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=303424
promptly, but I think we can sympathise with a lack of enthusiasm for
upgrading build procedures. We should expect a significant delay before
the IMP developers migrate from Ganymede.
b) The approach that works in
https://build.eclipse.org/hudson/job/cbi-m2m-qvtd-0.8-nightly/70/
Add IMP Runtime to the base editor feature and build so that IMP Runtime
comes from SVN.
This republishes IMP Runtime on the MDT/OCL Update site and so avoids
the problem that the IMP Update Site is not p2-ready; there are no
artifacts.jar and contents.jar
When bug 303424 is fixed (by M7 if we're lucky) we might revert to a).
With MDT/OCL being part of the Helios train and IMP not being, we might
choose to stick with this approach so that the Helios modelling package
does not have a dangling dependency on IMP.
c) Do nothing
No OCL Examples Editor in Helios.
d) Other Ideas
---
I would like some approval/lack of disapproval from other committers
before changing Examples features to commit us to a now only slightly
awkward IMP dependency.
---
Alex: when we add editor tests, we want to make sure there is a two
times expectation timeout on the build since UI tests can easily lock up
with an unanswered "Do you want to delete XXX" popup or equivalent.
