| Morning Sam: 
 Figured I would move our conversation here so Frank can check our work. 
 1) dropins 
 Got a response back from Stéphane Bouchet wrote: 
 you have to create a p2.inf file with instructions to creates a dropins folder :  
 instructions.configure=\ mkdir(path:${installFolder}/dropins);
We should be able to try this on the parkinfo pom.xml. 2) testing 
 I didn't get time to do any testing of the products or sdks, ideally Iwould have waited a bit longer before submitting a pull request
 
 Understand.
 I was able to test win32 and win64 yesterday; and fix the issues displaying raster data. 
 The full set of snapshots are available here: 
 I already have a solid downcheck due to lack of downloads folder; other than that it should be good for testing. 
 3) x86_64 testing 
 I had to to add x86_64 environments so the tests would run, but thesdk (or product, can't remember) wouldn't build with the macosx x86_64
 environment, couldn't find a required eclipse macosx x86_64 file
 
 What platform were you working on for this? I will try on my end and see what happens.
 4) test failures 
 In the tests profile I had to comment outnet.refractions.udig.catalog.tests.geotiff, but I'm pretty sure that's
 just because my jdk doesn't have gdal installed as it runs fine from
 eclipse
 
 The product fix for raster support yesterday should of done the trick.
 Also had to comment out net.refractions.udig.tool.edit.tests as itpops up a dialogue box requiring user interaction to continue. Maybe
 there is a way of disabling message boxes when running tests? Or it
 will just have to be closed by the test
 
 
 For the geotools build we have some tests check if they are running headless; I am not sure if a similar thing can be done for SWT. 
 5) language
 I didn't notice that there was another pom located atfeatures/net.refractions.udig_language-feature/pom-languages.xml,
 should that be integrated into the main build?
 
 I don't thinks so; it is used to assemble the babel translations for the "dropins" folder. If we can get a full maven / tycho build going for ecipse users then it will not be needed.
 Might get some time to do some more on the weekend
 
 I will see what progress I can make this week.
