| [sirius-dev] [ANN] Sirius 3.0.0 |
Hi all.On behalf of the whole team, I'm happy to announce the official availability of the Sirius 3.0.0 release, part of Eclipse Mars. Congratulations to everyone involved!
== Availability == Sirius 3.0.0 final is available from the following update sites: * http://download.eclipse.org/sirius/updates/releases/3.0.0/juno * http://download.eclipse.org/sirius/updates/releases/3.0.0/kepler * http://download.eclipse.org/sirius/updates/releases/3.0.0/luna * http://download.eclipse.org/sirius/updates/releases/3.0.0/marsThey all correspond to the exact same source code, but built against a different base Eclipse version. We recommended you use the update-site matching the version of Eclipse you use to avoid potential issues at runtime.
This version includes the complete JUnit and SWTBot test suites used to validate Sirius. They are published along with all their dependencies in separate update-sites from the core, available at:
* http://download.eclipse.org/sirius/updates/releases/3.0.0/juno/tests * http://download.eclipse.org/sirius/updates/releases/3.0.0/kepler/tests * http://download.eclipse.org/sirius/updates/releases/3.0.0/luna/tests * http://download.eclipse.org/sirius/updates/releases/3.0.0/mars/testsIf you want to install the org.eclipse.sirius.tests.support feature, which provides APIs to help create automated tests of Sirius-based modelers, you will need to add the following update-site: * SWTBot 2.1.1: http://download.eclipse.org/technology/swtbot/releases/2.1.1/
If you want to install and run the test suites themselves, you will also need the following additional update-site: * Sirius Support for Legacy Queries: http://download.eclipse.org/sirius/updates/legacy
It is needed to run the tests which use an old query language (which is now superseded by Acceleo 3 and the core feature:/var:/service: interpreters).
Note for Juno users: Sirius depends on more recent versions of some components that what is available by default from a Juno install. You need to add the following update-sites if you want to install Sirius 2.0.0 on Juno: * Orbit: http://download.eclipse.org/tools/orbit/downloads/drops/R20140525021250/repository/
* Acceleo 3.6: http://download.eclipse.org/acceleo/updates/releases/3.6/* EEF 1.5: http://download.eclipse.org/modeling/emft/eef/updates/milestones/1.5/S201505291308/
