ECF Simrel Plan for Mars

Contact: Scott Lewis

Derived from SimRel/Simultaneous Release Requirements

This document defines the plan for participating in the yearly Simultaneous Release.

Current ECF Releng Needs to Complete a Release

  • Complete build of appropriate version via the R-HEAD-sdk.feature project on the ecf builder. Once this build has completed successfully, there will be a new directory of same name as is specified by the parameter given when starting the R-HEAD-sdk.feature build in ECF's staging directory at download.eclipse.org. ECF's download area is in 'rt/ecf' so the staging directory is in 'rt/ecf/staging'. For example, for version 3.9.1 specified as the version when starting the R-HEAD-sdk.feature build, there would be a new directory in 'rt/ecf/staging/3.9.1'. Within this directory will be a directory name site.p2, which contains the built and signed version of the ECf p2 repository, as well as a zip of the entire repo named (for example): org.eclipse.ecf.sdk_3.9.1.v20141116-2130.zip.


The ECF download URL is of the form: http://download.eclipse.org/<ecf area>/
