DTP Releng Instructions

Description

This page mainly decribes how to set up headless PDE build system for DTP and start the build. Since the build server is a Linux server, below instructions are based on Linux environment.

Prerequisites

1. CVS version 1.10 or higher.
2. 1.4 level JDK.(Compiler JDK version of DTP 1.6 is 1.4)
3. Info-Zip zip and unzip.
4. org.eclipse.releng.basebuilder.
5. org.eclipse.datatools.releng.builder.
6. Eclipse 3.3.2 SDK
7. EMF 2.2(emf+sdo)
8. GEF 3.3

Setup

1. Add the zip, unzip, tar, gzip and cvs executables to your path as required.
2. Add the jre/bin directory of the installed JDK to your path.
3. Check out org.eclipse.releng.basebuilder and org.eclipse.dtp.releng.builder into local server.
We recommend to use tagged version of org.eclipse.releng.basebuilder. The HEAD version is not stable and may have changes which will lead to build failure. The examples below are tested with tag version vI20070209-1006
4. Create a new directory as baseLocation.
5. Extract Eclipse SDK, EMF, GEF into baseLocation. The root folder should be plugins/ and features/.

Start the Build

cd to org.eclipse.dtp.releng.builder directory and execute the following command:

   ./bootstrap.sh N

This shell script actually excutes below command:

(buildCommand="$antRunner -q -buildfile buildAll.xml $mail $testBuild $compareMaps
-DmapVersionTag=$mapVersionTag -DpostingDirectory=$postingDirectory
-Dbootclasspath=$bootclasspath -DbuildType=$buildType -D$buildType=true
-DbuildId=$buildId -Dbuildid=$buildId -DbuildLabel=$buildId -Dtimestamp=$timestamp $tagMaps
-DJ2SE-1.5=$bootclasspath_15 -DlogExtension=.xml $updateSite
-Djava15-home=$bootclasspath_15 -DbuildDirectory=/home/adb/releng.dtp/src
-DbaseLocation=/home/adb/releng.dtp/baseLocation
-DgroupConfiguration=true -DjavacVerbose=true
-Dbasebuilder=/home/adb/releng.dtp/org.eclipse.releng.basebuilder
-Djvm15_home=$jvm15_home -DmapTag.properties=/home/adb/releng.dtp/org.eclipse.datatools.releng.builder/mapTag.properties
-Dbuild.date=$builddate -Dpackage.version=1.6M6-$timestamp
-DmapCvsRoot=:ext:anonymouse@dev.eclipse.org:/cvsroot/datatools
-DmapVersionTag=HEAD -DjavacTarget=1.4 -DjavacSource=1.4"
)

Ant Properties Settings

The following properties are pre-defined in the build.properties file for the specified component. They can be overridden by setting them at the command line at build time or by changing them directly in the component's build.properties file.
