Hello Christian, Ø
As far as I can tell in the Buckminster build configuration, Papyrus is still building against the Juno versions of UML2, EMF, Xtext, and other components. Is this correct? I don’t think so. Our dependencies are updated automatically before each milestone build. So, currently, Papyrus Kepler should build against Eclipse
M4 plug-ins (For both the platform and other dependencies). The update sites are read from the simrel build configuration. We’re using the following ones: -
UML2: /modeling/mdt/uml2/updates/4.1milestones/ -
CDO: None -
EMF: /modeling/emf/emf/updates/2.9milestones/ (Will be moved to /modeling/emf/emf/updates/2.9-I-builds/ in a few days, during M5+3 build) -
XText: /modeling/tmf/xtext/updates/milestones/head/S201212180716/ So basically, all Kepler M4 builds. The UML2 update site hasn’t changed in the simrel build, so I guess the API change has not been pushed yet. As far as I can tell, the Papyrus build is correct.

Currently, Papyrus still uses EMF Compare 1.3. I asked on the bug [3] when/whether it is planned to update to EMF Compare 2.x, but have no response, yet. This is important because CDO already uses EMF Compare
2.1 in Kepler, so currently it is not install-compatible with Papyrus (I can only work because I have all of the sources checked out in my workspace) AFAIK, nothing planed yet. The compare feature of Papyrus is currently disabled in the build, and has never been part of the simultaneous release
train (It is an extra component). You should not have installation problems, as long as you’re not trying to install all Papyrus extra components (Which apparently still contain an EMF compare 1.3 dependency… I don’t even know why it does not break the build).
Anyway, if you’re trying to install Papyrus M4 (From
http://download.eclipse.org/releases/kepler), it should work. Nightly builds should work too, if you only use the main components (http://download.eclipse.org/modeling/mdt/papyrus/updates/nightly/kepler/main)

The Xtext 2.3.1 version currently used by Papyrus also is not install-compatible with the Kepler version; as I don't have it checked out from source, I am living with numerous compilation errors in my workspace
because I can't have Xtext Kepler and Juno versions both in my target. Are we planning to update to Xtext Kepler, and if so, when? Papyrus Kepler nightly builds still rely on Xtext M4 (And it seems to be working as expected; at least could I install Papyrus and XText correctly).
I guess we’ll meet the issue when moving to M5? I can see runtime errors with the M4 version, but everything compiles/installs correctly. Regards, __________________________ Camille Letavernier +33 (0)1 69 08 00 59 -

De la part de Christian W. Damus Hi, Team, I raised a bug today [1] to report an incompatible API change in the generated UMLEditor class in the MDT UML2 project's imminent Kepler M5 milestone, which breaks compilation of a subclass in Papyrus. This raises the question of keeping
Papyrus up-to-date with its dependencies throughout the Kepler development cycle. As far as I can tell in the Buckminster build configuration, Papyrus is still building against the Juno versions of UML2, EMF, Xtext, and other components. Is this correct? For my CDO feature work [2], and on that branch which I hope to create in the next few days, the Kepler versions of CDO (including Dawn) and UML2 will be required, because the feasibility of CDO support depends on enhancements in those
components. So, questions:
Thanks, Christian |
