Draft Build Specification

This is a place to capture the requirements for a automated build process for the Higgins project.


Initially the builds will only be available as Java Eclipse plugins.

In the long term we've publicly committed to also support these three package managers:

  • RPM & Debian (for Suse, Red Hat, Debian, Ubuntu)
  • OSX
  • Windows

The download pages need to make it clear what platforms the binaries are for. (Note The Eclipse folks said that they are working on automated build scripts for the Eclipse IDE to target RPM and Debian package managers. Don't know about OSX.

The .psf files (one for each Higgins component also need to be made available)
