[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (JBDS-2456) JBDS should be buildable from source zip (or at least document the limitations)

[ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBDS-2456?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.... ] Nick Boldt commented on JBDS-2456: ---------------------------------- 2 things need to exist/persist for this to work: a) root pom has to point to a parent pom that exists in JBoss Nexus (releases or snapshots) Currently, root pom in Alpha2x branch points to {code} <groupId>org.jboss.tools</groupId> <artifactId>parent</artifactId> <version>4.1.0.Alpha2-SNAPSHOT</version> {code} b) parent pom has to point to a target platform version that exists in JBoss Nexus (releases or snapshots), and that site must exist on a server which can be accessed by the user. Currently, parent pom in Alpha2x branch points to 4.30.5.Alpha3: https://repository.jboss.org/nexus/content/repositories/releases/org/jbos... (refers to internal server, which is only accessible via VPN) https://repository.jboss.org/nexus/content/repositories/releases/org/jbos... (refers to download.jboss.org mirrors) ----- 3 commandline flags are therefore needed to run the build: * multiple.target :: use jbdevstudio-multiple instead of jbdevstudio-unified, so that content can be resolved w/o need for VPN * maximum :: use latest stable target platform version, rather than minimum version * jboss-requirements-composite-extras-mirror :: resolve 3rd party extras Thus, after fetching the source zip, you should be able to build like this: {code} unzip jbdevstudio-product-sources-7.0.0.Alpha2-v20130415-1444-B156.zip -d /tmp/jbds-sources/ cd /tmp/jbds-sources/devstudio/product mvn clean install -P multiple.target,maximum,jboss-requirements-composite-extras-mirror {code} -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
