RE: [gmf-dev] GMF build process

["Richard Gronback" <Richard.Gronback@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Henrik,

Thanks for trying this out.  It may be best to wait until the current
refactoring is done, which I can focus on now that EclipseWorld is over.

It seems there is a problem finding/reading the build.cfg file, which is
fetched from CVS with the org.eclipse.gmf.releng project.  This file
contains the default values for eclipseURL etc.  It should be found in
the .\scripts\build\sdk\maps\org.eclipse.gmf.releng\maps directory if
all is well.

The baseLocation property is indeed the location of eclipse.exe (eclipse
root directory) of the installation against which to compile.  

Best,
Rich

Subject: [gmf-dev] GMF build process

Hi Rich,

I have a couple of questions concerning the build process.

I know, you are just adapting the build stuff to the refectored IBM
runtime. So my questions come to an unfavourable time. Maybe you will
want to adapt everything and answer my questions then.



I followed the instructions found in your 'GMF Build Instructions' at
http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/index.cgi/*checkout*/org.eclipse.gmf/rele
ng/org.eclipse.gmf.releng.builder/readme.html?cvsroot=Technology_Project
.

I was trying to run
build.bat -Dcomponent=sdk

and had an error because of a missing : seperator after the host names
in (following the result of a grep):

./org.eclipse.gmf.releng.builder/runtime/build.properties:mapsRepo=:pser
ver:anonymous@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/home/technology
./org.eclipse.gmf.releng.builder/sdk/build.properties:mapsRepo=:pserver:
anonymous@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/home/technology
./org.eclipse.gmf.releng.builder/tests/build.properties:mapsRepo=:pserve
r:anonymous@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/home/technology

where it should be :pserver:anonymous@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:/home/technology

After fixing this I had the error

F:\gmfbuild\org.eclipse.gmf.releng.builder\sdk\customTargets.xml:99:
java.net.MalformedURLException: no protocol: ${eclipseBaseURL}

checking that I found in

./org.eclipse.releng.basebuilder/plugins/org.eclipse.pde.build_3.1.0/tem
plates/build.properties

the lines 106ff:
eclipseURL=<url for eclipse download site>
eclipseBuildId=<Id of Eclipse build to get>
eclipseBaseURL=${eclipseURL}/eclipse-platform-${eclipseBuildId}-win32.zi
p

Of course this has to be adapted (to what?).

My commandline was

F:\gmfbuild\org.eclipse.gmf.releng.builder\scripts>build.bat
-DbaseLocation=F:\eclipse3.1\eclipse-SDK-3.1-win32\eclipse
-Dcomponent=sdk

(I assumed the base location is where my eclipse.exe resides, right?)

Can you help me in making the build process run?

Kind regards,

Henrik
