Re: [platform-releng-dev] Releng Tools changed in Build I20050208-0800

Mike, 

Set the version of your plugins to be
1.0.0.qualifier (change the first 3 digits to reflect the reality), add
in the build.properties:
        qualifier
 = context

Change the feature referring to your
plugin to use 0.0.0 instead of the precise version number.

From now on, the version number of your
plug-ins will be qualified with the CVS tag where the code is coming from.

Doug, 

The problem is that the RelEng tool is rebuilt on every build whether it
changes or not so using the build id doesn't buy you anything. Changing
the version is the only way I can see to avoid confusion.

Why

The only difference is that the file name on disk will be different.  It
would 
also be acceptable to tag the releng ZIP file with the build id.

So, for example, it is easy to tell I20040214-0800.zip from 
I20040214-0927.zip.  It is not easy to tell 3.0.4.zip from 3.0.4.zip.


Dorian's comment about an update site also makes sense to me.
