Description Jaroslav Tulach 2004-06-19 09:14:29 UTC

According to the installation proposal 
http://openide.netbeans.org/proposals/arch/installation.html
which describes the platform as a cluster we have
to slightly modify the content of the ZIP file we
build as part of build process (should be the
result of ant -f nbuild/build.xml build-platform)
and use this ZIP file when uploading platform
build on netbeans.org

Comment 1 Jaroslav Tulach 2004-06-19 09:20:41 UTC

The correct build with the right content (as described in
http://openide.netbeans.org/issues/showattachment.cgi?attach_id=15834)
is currently build as part of 

ant -f nbbuild/build.xml zipclusters

I suggest to move the creation of the platform zip file to the
build-platform task and name the resulting zip file
netbeans-*-platform4-*.zip where the "*" should be choosen according
to the naming scheme introduced by rbalada@netbeans.org. 

With my current knowledge and imho the zip file should not contain the
root directory netbeans and all its files should be under platform4
directory.

Comment 2 Jesse Glick 2004-06-20 17:30:10 UTC

Just don't build the ZIP as part of the normal IDE build or you will
slow down developer builds.

Comment 3 Jaroslav Tulach 2004-06-21 08:04:09 UTC

I was considering ant build-platform-nozip to just build the platform
and ant build-platform to build and zip it. This might solve Jesse's
last comment as well, if build-platform-nozip is used in case of when
one wants to whole ide.

Comment 4 Jaroslav Tulach 2004-08-11 11:13:14 UTC

Status please?

Comment 5 rbalada 2005-01-03 15:39:58 UTC

FIXED

Comment 6 Michal Zlamal 2005-01-03 15:45:15 UTC

added missing TM

Comment 7 Jaroslav Tulach 2005-01-04 06:41:52 UTC

Request: The name of the file should contain platform5 not just
platform as that is the most important information.

Request: The zip file should not contain netbeans/extra directory. 

Suggestion: Imho it would be better if the zip file contained files
without netbeans prefix. Just /platform5/....

Comment 10 rbalada 2005-01-26 10:35:30 UTC

Yarda,

it looks like we cannot agree what should be in the platform product.
I've attached layout files of each package type. 

We have following options:
- keep it as it is
- change platform product te equal to platform5 cluster package
- compromise solution, distribute both packages -> actual platform
.zip and newly platform5 cluster .zip packages

Comment 11 Michal Zlamal 2005-06-09 12:01:17 UTC

Jardo could you please comment?

Comment 12 Jaroslav Tulach 2005-11-30 15:54:25 UTC

Probably will not change, anyway...
