split ide-config.properties into multiple files ------------------------------------------------- Key: JBIDE-23475 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-23475 Project: Tools (JBoss Tools) Issue Type: Sub-task Components: build, central, central-update Affects Versions: 4.4.2.AM3 Reporter: Nick Boldt Assignee: Nick Boldt Fix For: 4.4.2.Final I'd like to split the contents of the current ide-config.properties file into multiple files so the content is easier to maintain via code generation. So, rather than 1 big file [1] we could split this into 5 files: * ide-config_4.4.snapshots.properties - contains the properties needed for jbosstools and devstudio CI builds (currently 4.4.2.Final and 10.2.0.GA) * ide-config_4.4.staging.properties - contains the properties needed for the latest jbosstools and devstudio staging build (currently 4.4.2.AM3 and 10.2.0.AM3) * ide-config_4.4.development.properties - contains the properties needed for the latest jbosstools and devstudio development build (currently 4.4.2.AM2 and 10.1.0.GA) * ide-config_4.4.stable.properties - contains the properties needed for the latest jbosstools and devstudio stable build (currently 4.4.1.Final and 10.1.0.GA) * ide-config.properties - contains all the other properties for 4.3.x and earlier releases [1] https://github.com/jbosstools/jbosstools-download.jboss.org/blob/master/j... By splitting this into smaller files, the contents that need to be changed every 3 weeks when we stage or release a build could be generated destructively, rather than having to worry about making changes w/ sed and not accidentally pushing in an invalid URL or value. From the central side of things, we would just want to treat all ide-config*.properties files as if they were pieces of a single file, and load them all into the same hash of properties we currently have from the single file.
