Hi,
A few of us have been working towards a release of our tools. We're
hoping to call it version 0.1. I have builds going on build.eclipse.org
now and the output is available in an update site. It's built nightly
(or more frequently if the need arises). If people could try it out and
report bugs [1], we'd all greatly appreciate it. Don't go blogging it
as it's just for testing until we have an actual release. You should be
running Eclipse 3.4. The URL is:
http://download.eclipse.org/technology/linuxtools/updates-nightly/
Once we have actual releases, we can set up a proper release update site
which we will advertise more heavily. It'll likely be the same URL but
s/nightly/released/.
There may be some rough edges with the update site so please file bugs
if you find any. That said, I've tested installing things with both a
vanilla eclipse.org build of the SDK and with the Eclipse packages in
Fedora 10 and the installation has worked in both cases. Before we
advertise this too heavily we'll have to document best practices for
users of distro packages vs. update site contents (ie. what takes
precedence, etc.).
Feedback on wording in the update site is always welcome. Your
participation in the project in any form -- be it conversations here,
bug reports, testing, etc. -- is always greatly appreciated!
For those working on the tools, please create branches of your
particular plugins and features and update the map file with these
branches. The next build will then automatically pull from that branch.
You can see an example of using a tag for valgrind. The map file is
here in SVN:
http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/index.cgi/releng/branches/towards0.1/org.eclipse.linuxtools.releng/maps/linuxtools.map?root=Technology_LINUXTOOLS&view=log
Thanks,
Andrew
