RE: [orbit-dev] Feature projects for Orbit bundles?
|
Hi Jeff,
I don't understand this, can you
elaborate?
-
My build is supposed to create features and plugins of orbit-bundles
for the update site, since orbit is not doing an update site itself. So, when
I'm only compiling against prebuilt orbit bundles from a base location, how
should I package these for the update site?
-
My build is supposed to create downloadable ZIPs that include
everything needed for TM. Same question, how would I put Orbit bundles into
those zips when I build against something in a base
location?
My existing build does both these actions properly already.
I cannot see why I should change it. For me, the only difference is that the cvs
repository location is different.
Cheers,

Just to be clear, you should be
grabbing the *built* versions from Orbit not grabbing the source and
rebuilding. It is true that the build for these bundles is trivial but
the principle is that we consume these as though the library originator was
producing bundles. PDE build has facilities for defining a "base
location" that contains prebuilt pieces for you to build with. I suggest
that people add the Orbit bundles to that as they would the Eclipse platform
etc.

Ok,
so I'm going to keep my existing build process and serve the
features
out of my project repository but grab the bundle source from
the
Orbit repository.
That makes migration really
simple.
Thanks!
