| − | ==What do I need to do to use org.eclipse.releng.basebuilder from HEAD now that the Xerces plugin has been removed?==
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | If you use the org.eclipse.releng.basebuilder in your builds and you use TestVersionTracker to create a test.properties file (search for "TestVersionTracker" in your customTargets.xml build scripts), please read on.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | Some older versions of the TestVersionTracker class required Xerces on the classpath. We have removed the Xerces jars from the HEAD stream only of org.eclipse.releng.basebuilder.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | For any team broken by this, a <generateTestProperties> custom Ant task has been created which does the same. It is available in the org.eclipse.releng.basebuilder/plugins/org.eclipse.build.tools plug-in from HEAD. To use all you will need to do is the following replacement:

| + | |
| − | Refer to this document http://www.eclipse.org/eclipse/platform-releng/updatesfor3.1.1.html
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | ==Can I use update manager in my existing Eclipse 3.1 installation to upgrade to Eclipse 3.2?==
| + | |
| − | No.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | Why not? The existing update manager can only update plug-ins and features, not files such as the Eclipse executable. See {{bug|123162}} for additional details.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | The good news is that if you download the platform runtime or Eclipse SDK for 3.2, you can install the Callisto components you are interested in using update manager. See [http://www.eclipse.org/callisto/ the Callisto page] for more details.
