Description Kim Moir

Those pages will soon be switched around so the 4.x download comes first on the main eclipse project download page.

Not sure how to do this so that the old links are still preserved other than having Denis use Apache mod_rewrite.

Some notes from a discussion with Kim and Andrew...

Proposed structure:

eclipse/
  downloads/
    index.php -> generated from drops4/
    eclipse3x.php -> generated from drops/
    drops/ -> Contains the same 3.x builds it contains today
    drops4/ -> Contains the 4.x builds
e4/
  sdk/
    drops/
      - Leave a copy of 4.2 M1 here to avoid broken links

Todo:

Kim:
 - Check what rsync script changes are needed
 - Make sure cleanup scripts don't delete 4.x stuff

Andrew:
 - Figure out 4.x builder changes to put 4.x build output under eclipse/downloads/eclipse4/
 - Figure out changes to rsync and build cleanup scripts

Created attachment 201820 [details]
patch to e4 builder

Kim, we will need to exclude something like the following
downloads/drops4
downloads/createIndex4x.php
downloads/index.html
downloads/dlconfig4.txt
from your rsync

I updated my rsync script.

Comment 5 Andrew Niefer

2011-08-22 15:03:03 EDT

I released the attached patch and created
     eclipse/downloads/createIndex4x.php
     eclipse/downloads/drops4/*

As soon as the next 4x IBuild runs (or earlier if we wish), eclipse/downloads/index.html will be created which will take precedence over the index.php.


Kim, we need
     eclipse/downloads/eclipse3x.php (copied from original index.php)
I'm not sure if this is part of your rsync or not

Hi Andrew, 

I've added eclipse3x.php.
