Building native SWT libraries with Hudson
Building the native libraries for SWT has always been a somewhat manual task. Every few months a new sucker committer is picked, and that person has the responsibility of building all of the SWT native libraries for each build. Over the years, this process has increasingly cumbersome as we have added support for more and more platforms. Our current list of platforms looks like this:
There’s good news on this front though. With much hard work Bogdan Gheorghe, Felipe Heidrich, and Silenio Quarti have almost entirely automated the process using Hudson. Now when a build is necessary it can be done with a single click!
Great work guys! Looking forward to lots of sunny skies!
