Nightly Component Builds
Note: We are working on a new automated process. This page is partially obsolete.
This page contains information on nightly builds of Higgins Components

General Server Information
Nightly builds of Higgins Components are performed on Eclipse build server.
| Connection Type | :ssh: |

| Host | build.eclipse.org |
| Build Path | /shared/technology/higgins |
Structure of the build folder
| /static-resources | This folder contains all required archives, such as Eclipse platform and other required plugins/libraries. Also there located org.eclipse.releng.basebuilder project used to produce Eclipse plugins. |
| /static-resources/stripts | This folder contains initial(starter) build scripts. Checked out scripts will also placed in this folder during the build process. |
| /work-dir | This folder contains temporary files required for builds. Build scripts should clean this folder before each build. |
| /work-dir/eclipse | If Eclipse runtime is required, Eclipse platrorm should be unpackaged into this folder. |
| /work-dir/builds | This directory for temporary files of the current build. |
| /work-dir/tests | This directory for temporary files of the tests |

How to create build scripts for automated builds
Some instructions can be found here.
Special instructions while Higgins is in the Incubation phase
- All downloadable zip files for builds and milestones must include the word "incubation" in the filename. For example, DSF-SDK-incubation-N20070413-0200.zip
* The jar files in the download zip file are not required to contain the word "incubation" in the filename. (See bug 178944 for the explanation.)
- All "Bundle-Name"s must include the world "incubation". Note that "Bundle-SymbolicName"s should not include "incubation" because the Bundle-SymbolicName is a technical namespace, not a user namespace. For example, Bundle-Name: Foo Plug-in (Incubation)
- Similarly, the names for update manager features must include the word "incubation". For example, Eclipse Platform (Incubation)
