[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (JBIDE-14642) How to automate process of bumping version for changed modules/submodules for every release

[Mickael Istria (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-14642?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13042127#comment-13042127 ] 

Mickael Istria commented on JBIDE-14642:
----------------------------------------

Although the new mojo doesn't automate the version bump, it makes it explicit, obvious and mandatory. For the last weeks, developers who have seen the mojo failure seem to understand what to do and apply the necessary changes without problem. That was the most valuable part.
We can leave this issue open to track idea about how to bump versions more easily; but I don't think it's worth more effort (it's not a difficult or long task, it's not error-prone thanks to Tycho checks, and there is already a maven mojo that does that), so I'd rather close it.

> The versions of plugins are constantly discovered to not be uptodated when they should and things like Usage and others where it is critical are not getting bumped.
> We need two things:
> A) detect when versions are not bumped properly - we got parts of this in various places, but they are not run nor documented regularly (having a green build verifying versions are not conflicting would be a Good Thing)
> B) document/automate a process which every affected lead can follow to make this happen and if not See #A
