Currently WebTools parent pom embeds a static versioned URL for the integration build to build against when using "build-individual-bundles". https://git.eclipse.org/c/webtools/webtools.releng.aggregator.git/tree/wtp-parent/pom.xml#n352 As the integration build is subject to change often, and as we prefer avoiding changes in parent pom so often, it would be helpful to have a static URL (link or copy) for the last available integration build, and to make parent pom consume it. Something like http://download.eclipse.org/webtools/downloads/drops/R3.6.0/I-latest would be fine.
See how platform does that: * http://git.eclipse.org/c/platform/eclipse.platform.releng.aggregator.git/tree/eclipse-platform-parent/pom.xml#n431 * http://git.eclipse.org/c/platform/eclipse.platform.releng.aggregator.git/tree/eclipse-platform-parent/pom.xml#n81
Up. Current "mvn clean verify -Pbuild-individual-bundles" is failing because the URL specified in parent pom isn't existing any more. A static URL would be welcome.
I am working now with the WTP scripts to promote and rename the builds, is in this point where the "latest I build" can be updated. Investigating the best approach.
IMO, the simplest approach is to create a http://download.eclipse.org/webtools/downloads/drops/R3.6.0/I-latest folder, and to have output of I-builds being rsync'd into this folder (as well as there current locations). Or if disk space is a concern, instead of copying stuff, you can think of putting composite*.xml files in it, and having the publish process update those files, but I find it less easy.
Created attachment 246600 [details] New version of the promote.sh Adds the [-r] option, to refresh the I-latest directory.
Created attachment 246601 [details] Previous version of the promote.sh script Previous version to the [-r] option addition.
promote.sh script updated to perform the I-latest refresh on demand. The new option [-r], indicates that a refresh of the repositories on I-latest requires to be refreshed with the defined build. The old and new scripts are attached. R3_7_integration pom.xml is updated, poiting now to the I-latest dir.
Created attachment 246632 [details] New version of the promote.sh
R3_6_maintenance updated to, initial I-latest sync done.
Cool. What is the URL for I-Build then? Did you also change WTP main pom file to use this URL instead of the volatile one?
The URLs are: http://download.eclipse.org/webtools/downloads/drops/R3.6.1/I-latest http://download.eclipse.org/webtools/downloads/drops/R3.7.0/I-latest Yes, the wtp-parent/pom.xml is updated with: 3.7.0 => <webtools.buildSite>http://download.eclipse.org/webtools/downloads/drops/R3.7.0/I-latest</webtools.buildSite> 3.6.1 => <webtools.buildSite>http://download.eclipse.org/webtools/downloads/drops/R3.6.1/I-latest</webtools.buildSite> Additionally, the script that we use to promote the the builds now includes an option to launch the rsync on demand, this will be done as part of the normal process when the Integration (or Maintenance) be promoted. This was not included as "part" of the promote copy operation so we can decide in each promotion if we do the update or not (in case there were a problem or testing purpose), also this allows to sync the repositories after the promotion, since it is independent.
Great, thanks!
