Hi Yishay,

I'm just following what you are doing and comparing that to what we did, so I'm 
just curious. Technically as soon as you're past 9, it have all the compiler 
and typedef artifacts in a release version and they are also located in the 
nexus staging repository.

So if you're going to re-do all of the steps again for a new release, then just 
ignore my comment. If not, I would like to know.

Chris

This is premature in my opinion. We are still working on it, and have not 
announced a release.

Ping?

I mean if the builds aren't reproducible, what are the reproducible builds 
worth.

Just want to make sure we weren't the only ones accruals respecting this self 
prescribed rule.

Betreff: How did you folks get past step 007?

Hi all,

so as I saw you’re at one of the steps in the framework repo, I thought: “How 
on earth did they get past 007?”
So I dug up the email, set my java version to the same as on the server and ran 
the scripts …

ant -f releasesteps.xml Release_Step_007 -Drelease.version=0.9.7 
-DskipTests=true

and the step failed with exactly the same error message as our attempts did:

notlast:
compare_files:
     [echo] comparing royale-typedefs-node-0.9.7-typedefs.swc
BUILD FAILED
/Users/christofer.dutz/Projects/Apache/Royale/royale/royale-typedefs/releasesteps.xml:167:
 The following error occurred while executing this line:

 royale-typedefs-node-0.9.7-typedefs.swc does not match
Total time: 1 minute 21 seconds

Even the differences were identical to mine (except that the timecode 
differences seem to have been fixed or have gone away till the next time our 
daylight-saving time is out of sync again)

So I thought: “Ok so this just used the release version of the compiler that I 
created, so let’s update that to the one you folks staged”.
So I ran:
ant -f releasesteps.xml Release_Step_003 -Drelease.version=0.9.7
and
ant -f releasesteps.xml Release_Step_007 -Drelease.version=0.9.7 
-DskipTests=true
after the first, so I was using the same compiler version. But it still failed.

When comparing the swcs of the node typedef IntelliJ tells me that the 
catalog.xml of the node module built on the CI server contains a “http” script 
(class) and the one built locally contains a “net” instead.
However the problem with the changed order of properties in the library.swc 
seems to have been fixed by latest changes in the compiler.

So I thought … ok … let me check the others (the ant script aborts after the 
first error).
And the “js” typedef has more differences:

  *   The SHA-256 checksums differ
  *   Document.cookie is String when built locally but was Object when built on 
the CI server
  *   The number after the $ sign for quite some subclasses differs.
I gave up after that.

So I can’t really see this is a reproducible build.

However I don’t think they have to be, but if you insist on reproducible build, 
I think they should be reproducible for anyone or they aren’t worth being 
called “reproducible”.

Chris
