I was surprised by having to change build.properties and rewrite the p2 parent.
Overview of the changes:
- Finding which eclipse parent to use and get it (since it is no published in central)
- Setup p2 parent to point at specific version of tycho and p2 repos. The CBI structure most likely assumes that all this is coming
from the eclipse platform parent.
- Fix up build.properties when entries were incomplete / bogus (which PDE Build did not complain about)
I just pushed my changes
http://git.eclipse.org/c/equinox/rt.equinox.p2.git/commit/?id=ac5a0fc4ac53fe300c6a74a013d2671988201f3c
I think that going forward some of the bits like configuration for signing, source bundle gen, etc that are in the platform-parent may benefit from being separated
in order to help project get more setup for free.

The CBI build is ongoing, but currently focused on the Juno maintenance stream. If you are in Kepler stream I expect some version numbers might be stale. Was it just version
number updates or something more significant you had to change?

Currently this is just so I can run p2 builds more frequently and of different branches :)
On a slightly different topic, is the CBI effort still on going? I’ve just found myself having to modify a large number of pom.xml and build.properties to get the simplest build
to go.

Why would you ever want to do that? :-P
Actually you're the third person to ask this question in the past week or two so that suggests we should probably publish it somewhere more easily reachable by a build.
