Re: [cross-project-issues-dev] GEF Oxygen M1 contribution only partially today

Now CDT fails because it needs LinuxTools, but LinuxTools also needs CDT.

I could keep enabling projects myself, but then it basically goes against the point of
disabling projects until they enable themselves.

Then what we can do is enable both CDT and PTP in the same contribution.
I'll push a path to Gerrit to see how that goes.

Hi,


If you merge a breaking change in master, then nobody will know if further changes break something or not. As far as I can see, the validation fails on the first error.

Actually, I believe PTP depends on CDT for other plugins.
So we have a dependency loop at the project level, although everything works at the feature/plugin level.

I'm leaning towards pushing the CDT enabled contribution to SimRel even though it currently fails.

Opinions?

CDT is ready but dependent of org.eclipse.remote.core which is part of PTP (although only hosted, I believe).

Hi again,


I want to describe the effort I have spent in the last hours for trying to enable the DLTK project - a project with rather small number of dependencies.


1. I tried to enable the whole DLTK contribution. The validation failed because Mylyn was disabled.

2. I disabled the DLTK integration with Mylyn. The validation failed because RSE was disabled.

3. I disabled the DLTK integration with RSE. The validation failed because Linux Tools was disabled.

4. I noticed in Gerrit that the Linux Tools team was trying to enable its contribution, but the validation failed because CDT was disabled.

5. I disabled the ShellEd feature of DLTK. The validation failed because EMF was disabled.

6. I disabled the Tcl features of DLTK. Finally, I got a successful validation.

7. I partially enabled the DLTK contribution with just the DLTK Core and Ruby features.

8. I tried to enable the TM/RSE contribution (I am committer there too). The validation failed because TM Terminal depends on org.eclipse.remote, which is disabled.

9. I disabled the TM Terminal features. I got a successful validation.

10. I enabled just the RSE feature of the TM contribution.

11. I enabled the DLTK RSE feature. Still there DLTK feature that cannot be enabled.


I've spend quite some effort to achieve the above. I am not sure what is the return of this effort. And I am still not done with enabling DLTK. I cannot imagine what it would take to enable a more complex project like Andmore. Building meaningful EPP package would be another interesting challenge.

Hi

We (EMF Parsley) depend on Xtext as well (besides EMF).  It's not clear
to me what we should do... add our p2 site to the simrel and push for
review and that will fail?  Or something else?

thanks in advance
