Modeling Project Releng/Building/Test on 64-Bit
As discussed in bug 253114, here's how to make your Modeling build run on modeling.eclipse.org (a 64-bit SLES 11 virtual server):
Step 1: relengbuildgtk.sh
- Add smarter platform arch detection. Replace this:
arch=x86
with this:
arch=x86 if uname -m > /dev/null 2>&1; then arch=`uname -m` else arch=`uname -p` fi # Massage arch for Eclipse-uname differences case $arch in i[0-9]*86) arch=x86 ;; ia64) arch=ia64 ;; ppc) arch=ppc ;; ppc64) arch=ppc ;; x86_64) arch=x86_64 ;; *) echo "ERROR: Unrecognized architecture: $arch" exit 1 ;; esac
Step 2: build/_common.php
- Set a 5.0 or 6.0 JVM, and ensure your BREEs are correctly set in all your MANIFEST.MF files to avoid accidentally forcing users to need a 5.0 or 6.0 JVM, if you have plugins which can run on an older VM.
"modeling.eclipse.org=------------,------------",
"3.5.0=HEAD,/opt/sun-java2-6.0_64",
Step 3: build/index.php or start.sh
- Make sure that as input to the build, you specify the linux-gtk-x86_64 Eclipse SDK, not the linux-gtk version.
