How Autobuild Gets Dependencies

Revision as of 11:56, 17 October 2007 by Unnamed Poltroon (Talk)

  1. Nightly build runs buildLoop target of autoBuild.xml script from org.eclipse.higgins.auto/runtime/
  2. buildLoop iterates through each project in org.eclipse.higgins.auto/runtime/projects.xml and checks for the existence of the project at the cvs location of the project defined in org.eclipse.higgins.auto/runtime/resourceLocation.xml
  3. If the project exists then it will be checked out from cvs
  4. Downloads all 3rd party dependencies defined in dependencies.xml (<remoteLibs> element) of checked out project from the library location in the org.eclipse.higgins.auto/runtime/resourceLocation.xml
  5. Also checks out all the project dependencies defined in dependencies.xml (<higginsProjects> element) by repeating the above 3 steps
  6. run other targets to complete the build
