WTP/Build/CBI Build

WTP CBI Build

Pre-requisites

• git installed and configured
• maven installed and configured
• Java Virtual Machines 1.4, 1.5, 1.6, 1.7, and 1.8

Git clone the repo

The repo for WTP's aggregator can be viewed here:

   http://git.eclipse.org/c/webtools/webtools.releng.aggregator.git/

You can clone the repo by running:

    git clone --recursive git://git.eclipse.org/gitroot/webtools/webtools.releng.aggregator.git

Build WTP with CBI

Setup

In order to build WTP you are required to setup BREE libraries. This means configuring a toolchains.xml file in your ~/.m2/toolchains.xml file.

Specifically for J2SE-1.4 you will require a copy of IBMJava2-142-SR13FP10.

The one I'm using is as follows:

<toolchains>
  <toolchain>
    <type>jdk</type>
    <provides>
      <id>J2SE-1.4</id>
    </provides>
    <configuration>
      <jdkHome>/opt/ibm/IBMJava2-142-SR13FP10/jre</jdkHome>
    </configuration>
  </toolchain>
  <toolchain>
    <type>jdk</type>
    <provides>
      <id>J2SE-1.5</id>
    </provides>
    <configuration>
      <jdkHome>/opt/oracle/jdk1.5.0_22/jre</jdkHome>
    </configuration>
  </toolchain>
  <toolchain>
    <type>jdk</type>
    <provides>
      <id>JavaSE-1.6</id>
    </provides>
    <configuration>
      <jdkHome>/opt/oracle/jdk1.6.0_45/jre</jdkHome>
    </configuration>
  </toolchain>
  <toolchain>
    <type>jdk</type>
    <provides>
      <id>JavaSE-1.7</id>
    </provides>
    <configuration>
      <jdkHome>/opt/oracle/jdk1.7.0_25/jre</jdkHome>
    </configuration>
  </toolchain>
  <toolchain>
    <type>jdk</type>
    <provides>
      <id>JavaSE-1.8</id>
    </provides>
    <configuration>
      <jdkHome>/opt/oracle/jdk1.8.0_112/jre</jdkHome>
    </configuration>
  </toolchain>
</toolchains>

Build

To build using the above toolchains enabled, use:

    mvn clean verify -Pbree-libs

Build a series of individual projects

See README

Build everything in one operation (DEPRECATED)

See README-deprecated

Individual Bundle Build

It is possible to build individual bundles instead of the whole project, this specially useful for committers to test the compilation of their components without go thru the whole product build process.

• Navigate to the plugin or feature folder you want to build
• Launch the individual build command:

mvn -PCI clean verify

Modifying the Base Repository

The base repository is the place from where all the WTP dependencies for the individual build will be pulled, in case you want to test the build against a different base repository (by default, it is the latest Integration build which is refreshed together with each promotion):

• Navigate to webtools.releng.aggregator/wtp-parent/pom.xml.
• Look for <webtools.buildSite>
• Update with the p2 repository you want to use as base.

NOTE: It is expected that you use one of the online WTP p2 repositories, and those contain repository and repositoryunittests directories. So, if you want use a different one the <webtools.buildSite>, <webtools.repository> and <webtools.testsRepository> must be updated accordingly.

• Save the changes.
