RE: [cross-project-issues-dev] Callisto staging Update Site ready for te

[David M Williams <david_williams@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Wouldn't hurt my feelings! As I said
in the note that started all this ... 

I have (tried) go give all committers write access to that staging directory
... so, if any of you can fix any of the above problems, 
(e.g. if I just missed a copy of some jar) ... then feel free ... but,
please, keep us all informed by a post here. 

But, I'll admit, I'm not much of a "sys
admin" .. so, if some one is being held up due to permissions, let
me know and I'll try again (or, ask someone who knows :) 


But, the hold up for EMFT I do not think
is purely technical ... call me a stick in the mud if you want ... but
... EMFT is not mentioned in 
http://www.eclipse.org/projects/callisto.php
So, I would expect the Planning Counsel
to say yeh or nay ... or .... at least the owner of that document ... Bjorn
... to comment
"yes, that was the intent, document
will be updated". 
(Am I reading too much in to that document?
 ... I was not privy to the actual council meetings where this list
was determined). 

But I do think it is instructive, somehow,
that it not being on Callisto is holding you up from trying it out. It
and its pre-reqs are, presumably
available from some project update sites
.... just need the book marks .... maybe the Technology PMC needs its own
"whole of Technology Update Site" to make 
trying things out easier? There's a
ton of stuff in there to try out!

Is there an ETA on this? I
think it is the last piece preventing me from trying to download all of
Callisto. And I want to try out GMF J.
 
I’m wondering if it would
be an idea that doesn’t hurt anyone’s feelings to give more people write
access to the Callisto directories on dev.eclipse.org. I’m sure if someone
was free they could have copied these over in a matter of minutes…
 
Thanks,

Hi,
 
GMF depends on EMFT OCL, Query,
Validation, and Transaction components (M5a of each), which can be gotten
from here: http://download.eclipse.org/technology/emft/updates/site-interim.xml

 
The EMFT team should have representation
on this list and be on board with Callisto (officially).  I thought
they were, anyway.
 
Best,
Rich

The good news: there is an update site to point to

http://download.eclipse.org/callisto/staging/

I personally install (test) starting with only a minimum "Platform
Runtime Binary" (30 meg zip). 
Then you have to "manuall" define the remote update site using
the URL of 
http://download.eclipse.org/callisto/staging/


But, bad news is, either I've gotten mixed up on some EMF M5 versions,
or ... that was so long ago for them :)  they've deleted some of the
jars already!? 
(If the latter, perhaps we haven't been clear, or perhaps we all have all
not agreed, that the project supplied update sites need to "stick
around" .... just like their zipped milestone downloads would). 

So, for that, I've create bug 
130505  M5 Update pre-reqs seem gone?
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=130505

But, if you just install EMF from somewhere else, you can make more progress
and run into more interesing problems. 

the most interesting is 

130497 Callisto update site says "can't find jdt.apt" while installing
CDT 
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=130497
(A packaging issue? Or a new JRE version issue?)

Next most interesting 

130502  no capabiliites if just "runtimes" installed
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=130502


And, least interesting ... 

130506 gmf update needs org.eclipse.emf.ocl_1.0.0.jar
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=130506

Well, this latter may indicate a planning hole in the Technolodgy Project
Chain of Callisto ... which, I guess 
some would find the MOST interesting! 


I'm sure there's many many more waiting for you to find. 

I have (tried) go give all committers write access to that staging directory
... so, if any of you can fix any of the above problems, 
(e.g. if I just missed a copy of some jar) ... then feel free ... but,
please, keep us all informed by a post here. 

We'll improve write/update process as we go. _______________________________________________
