Hi David
Thanks for the early prompt. MDT/OCL at +1 will try to contribute
very soon.
But, just checking our dependencies for a MDT/UML2 M2, I notice that
I must have missed an announcement of a UML2 major version change,
so as I understand it, MDT/OCL and all downstream projects must have
a major version change too.
At present only an I-build exists for MDT/UML2 4.0 so that's what we
must use for now. An esartly M2 would help Kenn.
Regards
Ed Willink

First greatest thanks to Kenn
Hussey
for making (or fixing) an "early" contribution repository [1]
for EMF core (or, "base", I think they are now calling the
platform-shared
parts.
This allows Eclipse 4.2 M2 and
EMF M2
to both be installed from repository sites. (For full issues,
and longer
term improvements, you can follow bug 356644).
Now the problem is that the new
version
of EMF (and maybe Eclipse M2?), apparently, breaks numerous
other
contributions, apparently due to increased minor version numbers
(combined
with narrow ranges?).
To aggregate, at the moment, I
would
have to disable about 20 of the b3aggrcon files in
org.eclipse.juno.build.
I can (and may) do some
disabling, ....
but, thought it would be a good time to review the process and
timing of
making contributions to an aggregation build:
you do not have to wait until
your +n
day to make a contribution. You can make a "warm-up"
contribution
at any time ... especially if it is needed to allow the
aggregation to
succeed. In other words, your +n day is the last possible day to
make a
contribution ... not the first day you may make one.
Many of the current problems are
"ripple
effects" from a few low level, commonly used bundles or features
(in
modeling projects, it appears) so, maybe with only a few fixes
we'll be
on the right path again, but, I ask that teams try to respond as
quickly
as possible to fix any "aggregation errors" they get notified
about ... please do not think you can wait until your final
contribution
next week ... and even if you have not been notified yet, if you
use EMF,
please "peek ahead" with the M2 versions of Eclipse and EMF base
and prepare an early version, even if you re-contribute your
final version
during the (final) window next week. After all, if we had to do
a true
"iteration" waiting for each of 20 project to fix their builds
sequentially before the next one fixes theirs, then we will not
finish
in time.
Thanks, for your attention, let
us know
if questions or issues.
