WTP 3.2.4

  • Ready to declare latest build?

3/18 M build
3/25 M build
4/1 M build

4/15 M build (after this build, begin PMC-review rampdown (+1 begins)) Anything following this would be only for serious regressions.
4/22 M build (after this build, begin +2)
4/29 M build (after this build, begin +3)
5/06 M build final build (with one week of buffer following this week, quiet week, until 5/12 (respin would requires +3))

Other business

  • Reminder that we have (or, many of us have?) moved to daylight saving time, on 3/13.
  • Assuming/proposing there be no status meeting next week, 3/24, due to EclipseCon, but that we will still have declared builds as usual.
  • Build releng changes:
- Changed wtp4x (Eclipse 4.1) builds to run only once per day (if changes to source code). Since, it is essentially a "test".
- Running unit tests also, with Eclipse 4.1.
- turned off custom access rule handling in batch build bug 325066. This doubles number of access warnings, from 60K to 120K warnings. Either amount is unmanageable. Turning off saves a little time during build (20-30 minutes?). Feel free to discuss/dissent in bug 325066.
- In fact, these access warnings, apparently, add 50-80M to our log file, so I plan to remove them (that is, prevent them from being generated in the first place). Comments welcome in bug bug 339817.
- added a "fast fail" check, if serious errors detected in log, such as a problem doing a cvs checkout, or similar. One problem is that if there are no serious errors, it results in a lot of red "Result: 1" messages in build log notices. Will need to write our own ant task to overcome that (and other Ant limitations). Issues documented in bug 339166
  • 1.2G cbi-wtp-wst.jsdt still shows up in "disk usage report" ... fixed via bug 339749
  • Other ?
