[rap-dev] Public Build

Hey guys,
I'm proud to announce that we have a public build now [1]. As you might know we built RAP on the EclipseSource servers in the past. As a result only EclipseSource people had the rights to configure our builds. Since last night we have a public build at the Eclipse.org Hudson. Please note that we want to use this build for productive use when Indigo is done. For Indigo we don't want to risk to break the release. Therefore we will run the remaining Indigo builds on the EclipseSource servers.

Anyway, the eclipse.org Hudson builds are clones of the original builds with small infrastructure related changes. Because we will use them for our real builds in the future it would be good to know a few things ;) 

- We have two Hudson jobs. One for the tooling and one for the runtime. The jobs can be found here:

- Every RAP committer has the right to configure the build. Please, only configure the build when you know what you are doing ;)

- Because every committer has the right to configure the build, you can add yourself to the Email list to get build messages e.g. for failing builds. You will find this email list on the bottom of each configuration.

- Everyone, not only RAP committers, can now access the nightly builds via the job links.

- The eclipse.org Hudson only supports Java 1.5 and 1.6. As a result we build RAP with 1.5 on this Hudson now. This will not harm because we plan to move to 1.5 in the Juno timeframe. So, start to using this build in production for Juno will be the best choice I guess.

- The builds use the sources from CVS HEAD and can be configured via build properties. So, as a committer you have also the right to run a build. When you like to build against a specific CVS branch or tag you can do this by pressing the "Build now" button and set the CVS_TAG property in the upcoming web form.

- At EclipseSource we have an internal build documentation. Before the eclipse.org hudson build will be used productively we will publish this documentation to our RAP Wiki. I opened bug 345380 for this task [2].

Thats it. have fun with the builds ;)

Cheers Holger
