RE: [cross-project-issues-dev] Building update jars

Thanks, David and I just got through IMing about this and we'll switch over now (which also will solve a similar bug we have regarding duplicate src.zips https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=127154).
 
Of course, it would still be nice if basebuilder would transparently produce the pack200 jars as well, imo.
 
Best,
Rich

The build.update.jar target generated in build.xml for plugin and feature is deprecated and should not be used (see bug #139268).
In order to produce jars for an update site you should be setting the property called outputUpdateJars

[cross-project-issues-dev] Building update jars





As I mentioned on the call, the generated build scripts for
plugins/features from pde basebuilder includes a build.update.jar target
(see generated build.xml for your features/plugins).  This is what the
GMF build uses (and I assumed most/all projects used).

To me, the pack200 steps could be included in what's generated by the
basebuilder (although honestly, I haven't looked into the details of it
yet).

In a customTarget.xml file, you can call this target using something
like this:

<!-- ===================================================================== -->
   <!-- Steps to do after the build is done. -->
   <!-- ===================================================================== -->
   <target name="postBuild">
       <antcall target="gatherLogs" />
       <!-- A temporary directory leftover? -->
       <delete dir="${buildDirectory}/org.eclipse.gmf"
failonerror="false"/>
       <antcall target="publish"/>      
       <antcall target="generateUpdateSite"/>
   </target>
 
   <!-- ===================================================================== -->
   <!-- Update the update site. -->
   <!-- ===================================================================== -->  
   <target name="generateUpdateSite">
         <!-- Create the directory structure -->
         <mkdir dir="${buildUpdateSitePath}/features"/>
         <mkdir dir="${buildUpdateSitePath}/plugins"/>
         <!-- Build the jar files -->
         <antcall target="allElements">
           <param name="genericTargets"
value="${builder}/customTargets.xml"/>
           <param name="target" value="updateSiteExport"/>
         </antcall>
   </target>
 
   <target name="updateSiteExport">
     <ant antfile="build.xml" dir="${buildDirectory}/features/${id}/"
target="build.update.jar">
       <property name="feature.destination"
value="${buildUpdateSitePath}/features"/>
       <property name="plugin.destination"
value="${buildUpdateSitePath}/plugins"/>
         <!-- Override the default temp.folder location, as it is too deep by default               on Windows, causing missing files in jars. -->
         <property name="temp.folder" value="${buildRoot}/temp.folder"/>
     </ant>
   </target>

I'll post this to the tips section on the wiki.

Best,
Rich
