I would also like for us to have a 'from scratch' build possible, including native launchers.
-1 on another repo just for this. I also don't believe we need new folders, we could have a ./build/ in o.n.bootstrap/launcher/windows/ just like we have for any other module. I see there's a Makefile in there and the sources. So, what's missing is perhaps a task in nbbuild/build.xml? Also agree that we can have launcher 'releases' with convenience binaries which we re-use in Platform releases, etc. --emi ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐ Original Message ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐ On 23 February 2018 6:09 PM, Eric Barboni <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Jan, > > I try to make it concrete to me (as I am not sure to understand completely > the workflow). > > We may add a folder to nbbuild/buildnatives that contains all the make c > stuff to compile and release (linked to the source we need for example in > o.n.bootstrap and ide/native) > > Phase 1 (optional) > > clone netbeans-incubator and execute the nbbuild/buildnatives > > Phase 2 > > clone netbeans-incubator ,ant and use the released native > > Is it a "possible" workflow ? > > Regards > > Eric > > -----Message d'origine----- > > De : Jan Lahoda \[mailto:[email protected]\] > > Envoyé : vendredi 23 février 2018 13:10 > > À : [email protected] > > Objet : Re: launcher for windows and building c file > > On Fri, Feb 23, 2018 at 1:02 PM, Eric Barboni [email protected] wrote: > > > Hi, > > > > I know that Apache Openoffice use buildbot\[1,2\] with cygwin on it. > > > > We need ask Apache Infra for that.
