Triquetrum/Releng/New Eclipse Version
< Triquetrum | Releng
Revision as of 20:14, 20 February 2017 by Cxbrooks.gmail.com (Talk | contribs) (See Milestone and Release Builds)
Periodically, Eclipse gets updated and Triquetrum should be updated to the most recent version of Eclipse.
Below are the changes necessary.
See Milestone and Release Builds
Contents
Update the tpd files
- We use Target Platform Definition (.tpd) files to define .target files, so edit the .tpd files and change from the previous Eclipse to the new Eclipse
- Right click on the .tpd file and select "Create Target Definition File", which will create the .target file
- Right click again on the .tpd file and select "Set Target Platform" (Or open the .target file that was just created and set the target platform there)
Check for other instances
Check out a clean tree and search for the previous Eclipse:
git clone https://github.com/eclipse/triquetrum/ cd triquetrum find . -type f | xargs grep neon
Update the version number
See Milestone Builds
Testing
- Go to the org.eclipse.triquetrum.repository/Triquetrum.product file and select Run.
- The new Eclipse version should appear in the splash screen
- Exit Eclipse and run "mvn clean verify"
- Test out the installer, which will be in org.eclipse.triquetrum.repository/target/products
mkdir tmp cd tmp unzip ../org.eclipse.triquetrum.repository/target//products/org.eclipse.triquetrum.workflow.editor.rcp.incubation-0.1.0-macosx.cocoa.x86_64.zip
