Hi Ed,

 

Here is the process we follow,

 

There are two steps in promotion. 

1.      Promote build to downloads pages. To serve users who want to download.
2.      Add to I-builds composite repository

 

When we find problems with build we mark a build as unstable. This removes 
offending build from I-builds composite repository. This enables end users to 
use a good build for upgrade process. These broken builds stay for a week on 
the download page and after they are automatically removed. This process is 
there for developers to analyse problems.

 

Due to this process whenever downstream projects point to I-builds composite 
most often they’ll see a good build. We also mark a build unstable if we find 
any problems during the build process itself. 

 

Because of above mentioned process Tycho will not pull a bad build in maximum 
cases.

 

Hope this explanation helps

 

Thanks

Sravan

4.20 IBuild?

 

Hi

There is something much stranger gong on.

I ran an early OCL build that would have run on Sunday. It has SWT usage but 
the build runs fine, because it used 

https://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/updates/4.20-I-builds/I20210413-1400 
<https://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/updates/4.20-I-builds/I20210413-1400/plugins/>
 

although that is the earliest of the 3 listed in the compositeArtifacts.jar. If 
it had used the more recent then the problem might have shown up.

?? Why did Tycho fail to pull in the broken build ??

http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/drops4/I20210413-1400/ has 63 
test fails which is rather disturbing.

http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/drops4/I20210415-0010/, which is 
not marked as unstable, has 7057 fails.

Surely such a high number of fails should be a private matter to be resolved by 
the platform committers with no more trouble to the community as a whole than 
perhaps a polite message to cross-project-dev announcing the lack of build 
promotions while a problem is investigated.

Why does http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/ show unstable builds? 
Surely these too should not have been promoted to waste disc space / confuse 
the community?

Why do any builds have any fails at all? Surely a test that fails is a test 
that fails? In my code, if a test is proving problematic then I raise a 
Bugzilla and comment out the test until a solution is found.

    Regards

        Ed Willink

Found the faulty commit

Need to investigate why this happened.

@Niraj Modi
Can you please help?

IBuild?

Hi,

I updated my target platform from
http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/updates/4.20-I-builds and after that I 
could not run any SWT applications anymore:

java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: Could not load SWT library. Reasons:

  
D:\Users\merks\oomph-1.21\ws\.metadata\.plugins\org.eclipse.pde.core\IDE\org.eclipse.osgi\480\0\.cp\swt-win32-4944r16.dll:
 %1 is not a valid Win32 application
     no swt-win32 in java.library.path: [C:\Program 
Files\Java\jdk-11.0.9\bin,....]
     D:\Users\merks\.swt\lib\win32\x86_64\swt-win32-4944r16.dll: %1 is not a 
valid Win32 application
     Can't load library: D:\Users\merks\.swt\lib\win32\x86_64\swt-win32.dll
     D:\Users\merks\.swt\lib\win32\x86_64\swt-win32-4944r16.dll: %1 is not a 
valid Win32 application

Using http://download.eclipse.org/releases/2021-06/202104161000 instead works 
fine, so it seems to be something that's happened between M1 and today.

Has anyone else noticed this?  For those who "eat our own dog food", such a 
problem could cripple your IDE if you update the IDE itself...

Regards,
Ed
