Description Ben Vitale

2010-06-08 10:14:19 EDT

Build Identifier: S-3.6RC3-201005271700

I noticed the copy of org.junit4_4.8.1.v20100525 included with the Eclipse Test Framework does not have any signer info. The copy included with the platform does have signer info.

I noticed this when I overlaid ETF on top of base Eclipse. Since there is some overlap, I blindly accepted the overwrite prompts, assuming any content shipping with ETF would match that which ships with the platform. Overwriting replaced the MANIFEST with the unsigned version, but left the other META-INF/eclipse.* files in place.

p2 noticed this when I was trying to install a feature using the director and the feature contained said bundle. It said the bundle had been tampered with, which it appears is accurate.

The workaround is easy: I just won't replace any files from that particular bundle when I extract the ETF.. but it sorta caught me off guard.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Unzip the base 3.6 platform
2. Unzip the ETF over top of it
3. Build a feature including the ETF
4. Attempt to install the feature into a product

Okay, it's not recommended that you unzip stuff over your SDK.  It's preferable that you install it using the Help->Install new software.  

That being said,there is an enhancement request to change the test framework to a repository that can be installed.  See bug 310267.  

In the interim, you can copy the test framework to the dropins folder.

Thanks for the pointer to that bug.

Just been lazy on moving away from unzipping for setting up base Eclipse in a build environment. Caught me on that one.

I started down the proper road but was a bit overwhelmed with the steps for setting up the delta pack (http://aniefer.blogspot.com/2009/06/using-deltapack-in-eclipse-35.html?showComment=1254488125896#c2983603127034020444)

I'll go back and have a second look. Cheers!
