Re: [wtp-releng] Updating pom versions

[Thanh Ha <thanh.ha@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

While this is true, it would require someone with rights to all of the repos to commit the changes or create patches and submit to the repositories that have changes. In addition would cause the build to fail more often and for someone who wants to try out the build but may not no how to resolve this issues on their own.

I just remembered if you have Releng Tools installed in your Eclipse it also has a feature that notifies the developer that their pom.xml does not match too I think the bug was this one [1].

If I understand this correct you can simply use this feature:
http://www.eclipse.org/tycho/sitedocs/tycho-release/tycho-versions-plugin/update-pom-mojo.html

Simply run:
  mvn -Dtycho.mode=maven org.eclipse.tycho:tycho-versions-plugin:update-pom

and it will sync your pom with the manifest.mf version. No need to handedit - but do do a git diff in between before committing to verify it was done right ;)

Note: -Dtycho.mode=maven is just there to skip all the p2 resolution for this call to mvn and thus make it much faster to run.

Hi Everyone,

Now that we're pretty close to being able to run builds from WTP. I thought I'd write this email about keeping pom.xml versions up to date. Unfortunately with Tycho the version for an artifact in a pom.xml need to match the version that's listed in the feature.xml, MANIFEST.MF or plugin.xml. This version number needs to match exactly otherwise we will see build issues such as:

[ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.eclipse.tycho:tycho-packaging-plugin:0.19.0-SNAPSHOT:validate-version (default-validate-version) on project org.eclipse.jst.j2ee.core: Unqualified OSGi version 1.3.100.qualifier must match unqualified Maven version 1.3.0-SNAPSHOT for SNAPSHOT builds -> [Help 1]

What this error means is that the OSGI version for this bundle is 1.3.100.qualifer but the version in the pom.xml is 1.3.0-SNAPSHOT. It is resolved simply by changing the version in the pom.xml to 1.3.100-SNAPSHOT so that it matches

When you look into a pom.xml you will see 2 version fields so it's important you update the right one. For example:

 <parent>
<groupId>org.eclipse.webtools.javaee</groupId>
<artifactId>org.eclipse.webtools.javaee</artifactId>
   <version>3.6.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
   <relativePath>../../</relativePath>
 </parent>

<groupId>org.eclipse.webtools.javaee</groupId>
<artifactId>org.eclipse.jst.j2ee.core</artifactId>
*<version>1.3.0-SNAPSHOT</version>*
 <packaging>eclipse-plugin</packaging>


The one you want to change is the 2nd version (bolded). This version corresponds to the artifact the pom.xml represents. The one between the <parent> tags corresponds to the parent pom.xml and must match the version listed in the parent. For the most part you don't have to worry about touch the parent one as it only needs to be changed when releng wants to change the version.

Thanks,


Thanh
