Hi there, For those who are interested I've managed to get the first stage of the sigil build up and running, namely that I can build sigil using sigil :)
If you want to try it out here are the steps to reproduce: # cd $felix-svn # svn update # cd sigil # ant It'll probably take a /long/ time on first pass as it needs to download a lot of large eclipse dependencies first time around and either my connection is hosed or http://download.eclipse.org needs more capacity (possibly both). But after this first pass the secondary builds should run quickly i.e. seconds not minutes. By way of a brief explanation of what is going on in this build. 1) I've hosted a prebuilt sigil-ivy-plugin at http://people.apache.org/~dsavage/sigil/ 2) The ant build downloads ivy, sigil-plugin, bnd and equinox.common.jar and stores them in $felix-svn/sigil/cache/ant/lib 3) Ivy caches a set of remote bundles that sigil can't yet index (i.e. no obr index to these resources yet) 4) Sigil creates local indexes of ivy cached bundles (just indexes filesystem) 5) Sigil builds all projects in $felix-svn/sigil/common and $felix-svn/sigil/eclipse using the meta data from the various sigil.properties files to resolve OSGi bundles that satisfy the dependencies from either the local cached repo or the spring enterprise bundle repository (for which I do have an OBR index) The next stage I want to get working is to generate an eclipse update site from these artifacts so I can install these dependencies in eclipse. Please let me know if you have any problems, questions, or want to help out ;) Regards, Dave
