The installation of nightly or weekly builds for CDT is more cumbersome than it should be. We create p2 repository during build, why not make that available online?
I created update site in Hudson build command: https://hudson.eclipse.org/hudson/job/cdt-nightly/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/update-site/ It will unzip cdt-master to Workspace/update-site/. Vivian, let me know if that location is any problem. Also, I think that it would be better to create a target for that in build.xml rather than put that command in Hudson script. I'll propose a patch soon.
A new target to unzip the master build zip is a good idea. Thanks Andrew!
Created attachment 192477 [details] patch Here is a patch introducing target "update-site". The code is from my head, I haven't tested it. I intend to commit and test it on Hudson.
*** cdt cvs genie on behalf of agvozdev *** bug 341639: Provide p2 repository for nightly builds on Hudson [*] build.xml 1.247 http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/index.cgi/org.eclipse.cdt/all/org.eclipse.cdt.releng/build.xml?root=Tools_Project&r1=1.246&r2=1.247
OK, it worked. For the record, I ended with this build command on Hudson: java \ -jar tools/org.eclipse.releng.basebuilder/plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher.jar \ -application org.eclipse.ant.core.antRunner \ -DupdateSiteLocation=../../update-site update-site test I also added update site Q+A to CDT FAQ.
The update site does not work (anymore?). The page does not exist (error 404).
