Description Kim Moir CLA 2010-07-27 13:50:03 EDT 
We need to be able to unzip the SDKs and test framework and run CVS commands for our tests.

Also, please add the path of these binaries to the windows path so they will be accessible by Hudson.

Can't you script this with Ant and use the Ant unzip/zip functionality.
Comment 2 Eclipse Webmaster CLA 2010-07-27 14:07:58 EDT 
Are there specific packages your looking for (tortise,7zip)?

-M.
Comment 3 Kim Moir CLA 2010-07-27 14:14:22 EDT 
regarding comment #1

No.

We don't use ant zip because it doesn't preserve permissions.  This doesn't matter on Windows, but we use the same scripts on Linux and Windows to a large extent.  

Our windows tests are started with a windows batch file that invokes the eclipse ant.core.antRunner.

regarding comment #2

Today we use unzip which is a command line utility provided by Infozip

C:\> man windows
No man should use Windows.  Oh, and Command not found.

*sigh*    =)

I've installed the tools and restarted to force update the path.

I just tried a test build and it looks like cvs pserver connections are blocked from this machine..not sure if some firewall rules need to be adjusted

Actually it's an issue with the name resolution.  Fixed.
