This doc outlines the items Nick and Max will be working on during Eclipse Summit:
(currently just random issues)
== Parent Pom & Target Platform Building ==
Why is helios-remote-target not the default one for our builds ?
- It is enabled by default, along with the "helios" profile which includes all the Eclipse.org and google.com sites against which the helios-remote-target's site is built. So... maybe we no longer need the "helios" one to be enabled by default? ~Nick
Why does our pom not have relative path references so you don't have to install parent first ?
i.e. <relativePath>../../../build/parent/pom.xml</relativePath>
- If we use relative pom's shouldn't we make the aggregator pom for "modules" a parent pom that references to the uber-pom ? (avoids the need to update too much the children and allow each module to adjust for their needs - i.e. run tests non-ui harness)
== Testing ==
We should use two surefire runs to seperate (fast) unit tests from (slow) integration tests, i.e. use failsafe plugin or simply use IT* as the pattern for integration tests. -- Agreed. Can have different profiles w/ different classname filters in the parent/pom.xml
We should find out how we can run some plugins with uiharness and others without.
== Source Bundles ==
Can we generate source bundles so we get source features ? (see egit for example of this)
(note: source features != sdk features since these doesn't include the binary) -- Apparently yes, but @d_a_carver says the egit stuff doesn't work.
== Dependencies ==
We have an issue with javax.soap 1.2 vs. javax.soap 1.3 we haven't been able to resolve - JBIDE-6450 - need some idea on how to resolve it.
Teiid/Savara extraneous dependencies (on datatools.enablement.sdk.feature (JBIDE-7443) or osgi package (instead of containing bundle/plugin/feature - SAVARA-141)
Decide contents of [JBDS Target Platform + 3rd Party Site] vs. [JBT TP] (ie., where to put things like m2eclipse, gwt, springide, testng and how to clearly state level of support)
== Documentation & Auditing ==
Tracking contents of JBT/JBDS when built as aggregation - JBIDE-7444
Create new HTML generator for both jboss.org and standalone index.html page (JBIDE-6958, JBIDE-7045)
Create new tool to diff between releases "sanity checker" - JBIDE-6343
