Re: [orbit-dev] Fw: Ready for de.cau.cs.kieler to be in a build?

William,

thank you for pointing this out. I haven't been aware of that.
I also CC'd Miro Spoenemann who is one of the developers and the contact person for the KIELER library.

Kind regards,
Henrik

Henrik,

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but ...

Seeing the Orbit build fail, and looking for the reason, I see that messages such as those below.
These give me pause, and pretty much change my mind about if this is appropriate for Orbit.
I am currently thinking not.

Orbit bundles, besides being from "third parties" are normally low level function that does not depend on other Eclipse projects.

This large set of bundles has so many dependencies on "Modeling" projects, and sounds like it is a "complete system", that I think it better belongs in Modeling. Perhaps proposed as
as a sub-project of gmf or something, if it doesn't fit in to any existing projects.

Missing required plug-in org.eclipse.buckminster.sax_0.0.0.        
Missing required plug-in org.eclipse.acceleo.engine_0.0.0.        
Missing required plug-in org.eclipse.amalgam.discovery.ui_0.0.0.
Missing required plug-in org.eclipse.gmf.runtime.diagram.ui_0.0.0.
Missing required plug-in org.eclipse.gmf.runtime.diagram.ui.render_0.0.0.        
Missing required plug-in org.eclipse.buckminster.sax_0.0.0.        
Missing required plug-in org.eclipse.acceleo.engine_0.0.0.

Sorry this wasn't clearer, sooner. I think we've made one or two exceptions, but its been for "small" things that were "low level" in Eclipse, such as org.eclipse.osgi.resolver (or something ... I forget what exactly).

Thus, I'll comment out your contributions from the Orbit feature, for now, and ask you to discuss the "Modeling project" approach with the Modeling PMC. (Ed Merks CC'd on this note).
Thanks,
