[cdt-dev] Publishing a build

[Doug Schaefer <DSchaefer@xxxxxxx>]

Hi Vivian (and all),

 

In the interest of full disclosure, I’ll publish the steps I’ve gone through to publish release builds.

 

1)       Unzip the master zip into a temporary directory

2)       Move the plugin and feature jars into the update site (cdt/releases/europa in this case)

3)       Insert the features into the update site’s site.xml and set categories as appropriate

4)       Run the optimize script that’s in the cdt/scripts directory to create packed jars

5)       Wait for the downloads site to update and test that the site.xml is correct (this could take a while)

6)       Update the cdt website, send mail to cdt-dev and cdt newsgroup announcing new build

 

That’s it. Chris has my MSN id if you need any help. You can probably start this process now for CDT 4.0.2.

 

Cheers,
