Platform-releng-basebuilder
Many non-platform build teams rely of the plugins in org.eclipse.releng.basebuilder to run their builds. This page will serve to notify build teams of recent changes to basebuilder so they may incorporate changes as appropriate.
By using the HEAD version of org.eclipse.releng.basebuilder, there may be unexpected changes at times. Building from HEAD is advised for people who like to live on the edge :-). A version of org.eclipse.releng.basebuilder is tagged after every milestone before we upgrade to the lastest milestone plugins. For instance, version M2_32 of org.eclipse.releng.basebuilder reflects the version of org.eclipse.releng.basebuilder that was used to build 3.2 M2 and may provide additional stability than HEAD.
November 7, 2005 changes
HEAD stream of org.eclipse.releng.basebuilder tagged as version M2_32. Subsequently, released Eclipse 3.2M3 plugins in HEAD.
We renamed org.eclipse.pde.build_3.2.0/scripts to org.eclipse.pde.build/scripts because our scripts explicitly reference the path to pde build. With the plugin versioning changes now being implemented, we didn't want to change name of pde build each time the qualifier changes. For instance, the full name of the pde.build plugin from from M3 is org.eclipse.pde.build_3.2.0.v20051031a.
