Triquetrum/Releng/New Eclipse Version

< Triquetrum‎ | Releng
Revision as of 20:12, 20 February 2017 by Cxbrooks.gmail.com (Talk | contribs) (Intro)

Periodically, Eclipse gets updated and Triquetrum should be updated to the most recent version of Eclipse.

Below are the changes necessary.

Update the tpd files

  1. 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
  2. Right click on the .tpd file and select "Create Target Definition File", which will create the .target file
  3. 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

  1. Go to the org.eclipse.triquetrum.repository/Triquetrum.product file and select Run.
    1. The new Eclipse version should appear in the splash screen
  2. Exit Eclipse and run "mvn clean verify"
  3. 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
