This article is a stub. You can help Eclipsepedia by expanding it.
Order of listed items below should not be taken as priority sequence. For prioritization, see Project Plan (Draft), or the following bugzilla queries:
Contents
Requirements
End User
- properly-defined plugins and features (see JET Transforms/Wizards for creating project meta data)
- a .releng project (see JET Transforms/Wizards for creating project meta data)
System
- UI for running, exploring, validating & promoting builds; UI for killing / purging invalid builds
- automatic build cleanup / expiry
- configuration to be done in Portal
- solution for scheduling builds (eg. crontab-based)
- continuous builds (build queuing, repo watching)
- support for java-only, simple project builds (not products)
- support for building on Linux only (no Win or Mac shared libraries)
- builds must be reproduceable (tagging)
- one build per project or component
- mechanism for producing signed, packed, and digested update sites w/ p2 metadata
- support for Eclipse SCM systems (cvs + svn)
Cross-Project Integration
- mechanism for optionally contributing update site feature(s) to a coordinated release site, a la Ganymede
Enhancements
- support feeding dependencies to build from update site instead of from zips
- support getting latest dependencies from RSS feeds
- support building & testing against multiple versions of target platform
- provide source builds to facilitate the build-from-source scenario (eg., Linux distros)
- automatic cleanup of downloaded/cached dependencies
- support Buckminster
- support SVN
- support Maven-based dependencies
- convert bash scripts that “do work” to Ant scripts w/ custom tasks; submitting these back to PDE build or releng.basebuilder for reuse
- convert bash scripts that “do calculations” to PHP-based web apis, so they can be called by web, shell, ant, or java
