Re: [platform-releng-dev] Wanna be JAR'd?

DJ,

I have one additional question here. What happens to jars that are part of
a plug-in which we use
when we launch a second VM. For example JUnit (inlcuded in junit.runtime)
uses a Jar which
contains the main class for the VM which actually runs the test cases. Same
for computing the
serial version id for quick fixes in JDT/UI. There we launch a second VM
which uses the
serialsupport.jar from JDT/UI's root directory.

You is resposible to extract these jars from the plug-in jar so that the
second VM can access
them ?

Dirk

As you know, we are pushing towards shipping as many plugins as possible as
jars for 3.1.  Our initial goal is to have all the RCP plugins done for M6.
Lots of information on this is available at

http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/index.cgi/%7Echeckout%7E/platform-core-home/documents/3.1/run_from_jars.html


The core team has been running their entire Eclipse installs in this mode
for some time now and we're feeling pretty good about it.  To be sure
however, there are workflows that we have not encountered.  Some of these
may raise issues.  That's where you come in.

We are looking for teams to step up and be JAR'd for the March 22nd
integration build.  We will do all the work and explain to you what is
happening.  You just kick back and let us at some of your files and then
tell us about any problems you or your users encounter.

The Core Team
