Nick Boldt commented on JBIDE-17210:
------------------------------------
If the aggregate builds frequently, people like Denis complain it moves too fast and
builds that depend on it break. But now that builds depend on specific components instead
of an upstream aggregation (or composite), the only build affected by frequent changes to
the JBT aggregate in master is the JBDS build (which depends on it for its content).
Meanwhile, frequent builds also trigger complaints from other Jenkins users because
we're tying up resources and just respinning content for no reason.
So... ages ago I implemented a bit of logic that says "check the upstream composite
site; if content has changed there, we need a new aggregate. If not, don't rebuild the
aggregate."
This logic is here:
https://jenkins.mw.lab.eng.bos.redhat.com/hudson/job/jbosstools-composite...
HOWEVER...
when the composite install test fails, it won't report correctly if the site contents
are the same or not; in fact, it simply refrains from kicking the downstream aggregation,
and the result is the JBT nightly master branch update site aggregate is horribly out of
date.
The reason for the failure is logged and simple enough to fix:
{code}
[p2.dir] !MESSAGE The installable unit org.jboss.tools.gwt.feature.feature.group has
not been found.
{code}
Basically, we 're trying to install a feature that no longer exists in the composite,
and p2 director doesn't take too kindly to that sort of shenanigan.
where is our nightly site OR why is nightly site not actually built
regularly?

Key: JBIDE-17210
URL:
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-17210
Project: Tools (JBoss Tools)
Issue Type: Bug
Components: build
Reporter: Max Rydahl Andersen
http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/updates/nightly/core/master
our official "nightly" updatesite has not been rebuilt for ~6 days at the time
of writing.
see
https://jenkins.mw.lab.eng.bos.redhat.com/hudson/view/JBossTools/view/JBo...
Why is this ?
Is there another site that can be used as "nightly" ? i.e. one that just
composites instead of aggregates ?
p.s. i'm going to kick of a build so we get some fixes into the nightly.
