provide tool to audit BUILD_ALIAS in feature qualifiers when aggregated ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBIDE-18985 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-18985 Project: Tools (JBoss Tools) Issue Type: Feature Request Components: build, updatesite Affects Versions: 4.3.0.Alpha1 Reporter: Nick Boldt Assignee: Nick Boldt Fix For: 4.3.0.Beta2 Based on discussion {quote}Do you have a test for "expected BUILD_ALIAS value in feature qualifiers" ?{quote} Some tests we can run (forgive this pseudocode): {code} // for builds up to a x.y.0 release if ((BUILD_ALIAS in (Alpha*, Beta*, CR*) and jbosstools.version endsWith(".0")) { // make sure all features end in the same BUILD_ALIAS, or Final // if anything doesn't match WARN (want a build to be yellow, not red) } {code} {code} // for GA builds and followup maintenance if ((BUILD_ALIAS in (Final, GA)) { // make sure all com.* features end in GA, and all others end in Final // if anything doesn't match FAIL (want a build to be red) } {code} Once we have that coded, perhaps into a maven enforcer plugin?, we can fine tune it for cases like where Freemarker does an update in Alpha and then does nothing for 4 months, waiting for CR/GA. Should they have to keep updating their root pom just so the BUILD_ALIAS matches and they're building against the correct target platform? Or, should their code remain dormant, but their job's config.xml be updated to override the BUILD_ALIAS & TARGET_PLATFORM values to the correct versions?
