Re: [dpdk-users] Suggestion: DPDK "latest" Download Links
Thomas, it would be super useful to have this in order to make sure the underlying platform is not broken with any version update. We don't expect code changes in application unless there is a breaking API change right? This would be good to identify it too as part of automation. -Original Message- From: users On Behalf Of Thomas Monjalon Sent: Thursday, August 23, 2018 4:09 AM To: Ferruh Yigit ; Justin Parus Cc: users@dpdk.org; tdelanero...@linuxfoundation.org Subject: Re: [dpdk-users] Suggestion: DPDK "latest" Download Links 22/08/2018 11:58, Ferruh Yigit: > On 8/20/2018 8:03 PM, Justin Parus wrote: > > Hi, > > > > I would like to propose adding DPDK "latest" download links.

When you change from one major version to another one, you often have to adapt your code, so it cannot be automatic. I see more values in having a link for the latest version of each stable branch.

[dpdk-users] Suggestion: DPDK "latest" Download Links
Hi, I would like to propose adding DPDK "latest" download links. For example dpdk-latest-major and dpdk-latest-stable, would automatically update and point to the most recent date major and stable releases respectively. This would be useful for our tests as they would always be testing the latest packages automatically. Thanks, Justin
