In bug 364198, Daniel hinted that he had difficulties building locally using maven: > After the tips from Jeff I was able to build Linuxtools successfully, with all > Helgrind tests plug-in passing the tests. Daniel, could you add those tips to the wiki somewhere? I'm thinking a new "Building Locally" section on this page: http://wiki.eclipse.org/Linux_Tools_Project/Getting_Involved Just log in with your bugzilla credentials. Thanks!
Hi Andrew, Just checked that there is already a section named "Building locally". It's in the middle of the text of the Automated Builds section: "We use the Eclipse Hudson server to run continuous integration builds when changes are pushed to our Git repository. Every 6 hours we poll for Git changes and if they have occurred, we run a full build using Tycho and run all unit tests. See instructions for **building locally** for how to perform a full local build." The instructions of the page are accurate, I would just add something about building while skipping unit tests and how to not build from an specific directory (ex: helgrind) to avoid getting dependencies not resolved from the parent dir. Do you want me to just add these info in the existing page or should I go on and (re)create the section at the Getting Involved page?
It would be best if you could add your comments to the existing section and put a link to it on the Getting Involved page. Thanks, Daniel!
I'm experiencing the following error when trying to edit the contents of the page: "You do not have permission to do that, for the following reason: The action you have requested is limited to users in the group user." Probably someone needs to give me permission to edit the wiki ... or simply add the lines * You can add the parameter "-Dmaven.test.skip=true" for debug purposes, but remember that no patch that breaks the unit tests will be acceptable. * Some components have dependencies between then, for example Valgrind plug-ins. In that case, always build the whole valgrind suite instead of one particular plug-in. At the "Building locally" section of the page http://wiki.eclipse.org/Linux_Tools_Project/Releng#Building_locally The section "Automated Builds" already have a link for this section above.
(In reply to comment #3) > I'm experiencing the following error when trying to edit the contents of the > page: > > "You do not have permission to do that, for the following reason: > The action you have requested is limited to users in the group user." Are you logged in with your bugzilla username/password? That's all you need. There are no special permissions for the page.
Hmmm my Firefox made me a fool ... I was logged in but probably with session expired. Tried a logout/login and now I can edit the page :) I've changed the text a bit and now it looks like this: * You can add the parameter "-Dmaven.test.skip=true" for debug purposes, but remember that no contribution that breaks the unit tests will be accepted. * Some components have dependencies between then, for example Valgrind plug-ins. In that case, always build the whole Valgrind suite instead of one particular plug-in. I've saved these changes. Let me know if I need to change/add something.
It looks great, Daniel. Thanks!
