Re: [jbosstools-dev] Xulrunner/VPE versioning fun
The xulrunner have some weird versioning I would like to get cleaned
up or at least documented why it is so:
The bundle manifests uses three different versions:
Bundle-Version: 1.9.2.16
this is original XR binaries
Bundle-Version: 1.9.2.16b
this is slightly changed original binaries for Windows and Linux x86. I have added
'b' while modifying these plugins.
Bundle-Version: 1.9.2.19pre
this is binaries from XR nightly builds for Linux x86_64, it works the best on Linux
x86_64
The feature uses a "merged" version in 2 different shapes:
/features/org.mozilla.xpcom.feature/feature.xml:
version="1.9.216.qualifier"
./features/org.mozilla.xulrunner.feature/feature.xml:
version="1.9.218.qualifier"
218 should be just a typo. Probably we it would be better if we leave 1.9.2.qualifier
eh ? no …why not 1.9.2.18.qualifier ? hmm i guess osgi doesn't like that.
Any how - we need to be careful about such changes since might not be possible to install
via p2 if sudden change in sequence of version number.
Questions for Yahor/Denis:
1) Does these ever change ? if yes then they should have .qualifiers in the manifest
Yes, Denis and I are trying to keep it updated.
So what part of the version number do you bump on changes ?
2) Any reason why a mix of .16/.16b/.19pre and 216/218 ?
Yes, see above. Different OSs need different XR versions. I will add comments to poms.
ok. thanks.
