Mickael Istria commented on JBIDE-19878:
----------------------------------------
Apparently, documentation should also state that for TP, we usually don't allow to
rebuild from source and consume directly 3rd-party binaries. So it means that having
3rd-party binaries is a requirement before requesting inclusion in our TP.
devdoc for Requesting changes to TP needs clarifications
--------------------------------------------------------
Key: JBIDE-19878
URL:
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-19878
Project: Tools (JBoss Tools)
Issue Type: Feature Request
Components: build
Reporter: Rob Stryker
Assignee: Nick Boldt
The devdoc page
building/target_platforms/target_platforms_updates.adoc#update-the-target-files is very
confusing for someone who's just trying to get something added to TP. If build team
insists on regular devs following this workflow / policy, it must be organized properly so
as not to confuse average devs.
1) Checking if requirements is currently mirrored already should be very high up in the
ToC of the page
2) Page should indicate that all of Mars is already duplicated, and does not need its own
special folder with a build.xml
3) Page should then indicate if the IU you need is not in the 'mars' folder, it
must have its own folder with a build.xml
4) Page should prioritize creation of the build.xml higher above making changes to the
.target file
Basically, the entire page needs to be revisted and seen through the eyes of someone who
hasn't made TP updates before. You need to direct the dev in what they need to do
first, especially if you intend to keep linking this document
