Re: [platform-releng-dev] Howto use new directory.txt?

[David M Williams <david_williams@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Stephan, are you asking because you use
(or, used to use) tags for a few specific projects from the Platform in
your PDE batch builds? Or are you asking more for what to load into your
development environment? 

I ask since I am not sure the 'ol "Git
Fetch Factory' used by PDE build will know what to do with these "repository
tags" for specific, bundle-level, projects. It might, I'm not saying
it would not work ... just saying I don't know. Let us know if it does!


You may be a one-of-a-kind special case
(for ObjectTeam, right?) but I opened a (low priority) feature request
on ourselves to provide Orbit-like p2-format map files for use by PDE builds,
which would be a better solution for most such use cases, if people needed
to pull just a few pre-req bundles for PDE based builds. But as far as
I know, must such consumers build against the entire platform build, so
do not need such a map file.

Just trying to clarify.

Are you saying the same tag (e.g., I20130314-1330) is
used in all individual repos?
That sounds like a life-saver.
Otherwise I'm afraid I'd have to tell pdebuild how to consume a repo with
sub-modules <gulp> ...

thanks
Stephan

Now that the build is cbi based (congrats!), what is the
recommended way for finding out, what exact versions were used for the
build?

The directory.txt used to tell me for each plug-in from which tag it was
built. Now that file only specifies a commit id within eclipse.platform.releng.aggregator.git.
Where to go from there?

The build input is tagged with the build tag for the aggregator and all
contained repos.  So you can either just use that to check out eclipse.jdt.ui
(or core) directly or you can check out the aggregator to that tag and
it will point to the jdt submodule used for that build, ex:

git checkout I20130314-1330
git submodule update eclipse.jdt.ui
