[jira] [Updated] (DERBY-5272) Stop building Eclipse plugins as
Derby release artifacts
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-5272?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]
Rick Hillegas updated DERBY-5272:
---------------------------------
Attachment: derby-5272-02-aa-removeFromReleaseScript.diff
Attaching derby-5272-02-aa-removeFromReleaseScript.diff. This patch removes the generation of eclipse plugins from the top level release script.
I did not remove the target which actually generates the plugin. I don't think we should remove that target unless we are sure that it's useless to the eclipse community.
We agreed that 10.8.2 was the last release which would carry eclipse plugins. I ported the patch to 10.8 because we may vet a 10.8.3 release later this year. I do not intend to port this fix to any other branches. No-one builds releases from the 10.7 branch and the top-level release script is only useful from that release forward.
Committed to the trunk at subversion revision 1345254.
Ported to 10.9 branch at subversion revision 1345261.
Ported to 10.8 branch at subversion revision 1345264.

> A consensus has developed that we should stop building the Eclipse plugins as part of Derby releases. 10.8.2 will be the last release which includes these artifacts. After that, people who depend on these plugins will need to build them themselves and, if possible, find a place to publish the plugins. This topic has been discussed on the following email threads:
