With a few exceptions (e.g. STS IdP) while most of the necessary components auto-build nightly, most of the Higgins 1.1 solutions do not yet auto-build nightly. Three reasons:
1. For one or more of the components used by the solution, the component build script is missing but our home-made build system [1] should work. 2. To build one or more of the components would require enhancements (e.g. to handle nightly C++ compilation) to our home made build system. We¹ve decided never to do this and instead to cut over to creating a Buckminster build script instead. 3. The solution requires one or more non-Eclipse-Higgins redistributable libraries. Solutions to each of these three are, respectively: 1. Just write the script 2. Write the Buckminster script 3. ...ah the interesting one To solve #3 involves building solutions off of the Eclipse-Higgins site. I have started a page to gather requirements for this here [2]. Please review and comment. As you can see from reading [2], you WILL be able to go to the new Higgins download page [3] and download complete executable solution artifacts. The links for ³type #3² solutions will simply point to an Azigo-hosted download page. --Paul [1] We don¹t yet use http://eclipse.org/buckminster/ [2] http://wiki.eclipse.org/Automated_Solution-Level_Builds [3] http://eclipse.org/higgins/solutions/my_downloads.php (just needs to be renamed and checked into ³ver2² staging area of the Higgins website)
