Hello everyone,
This posting is intended for the LTTng stakeholders.
We plan to properly align to Alex's recommended Linux Tools project
structure for the upcoming 1.0 release. We did a half-hearted job at it at
the last "ultimatum" :-) mainly because we had many internal branches
ongoing, coupled with a tight local release schedule, and it was deemed too
risky to go full-blown then.
But, as we are preparing for 1.0, now would be good time to bite the bullet
and become fully compliant with the guidelines.
In a nutshell, the various plug-in IDs are already correct but the package
and directory structures do not match exactly. The work that has to be done
is the following:
- Refactor (rename) the packages
org.eclipse.linuxtools.{lttng{,.tests},tmf{,.tests}} to the
org.eclipse.linuxtools.{lttng.core{,.tests},tmf.core{,.tests}}
- Do the corresponding "git mv" so the repo directories match the new
package names
- Fix the pom.xml:s
- Make sure nothing is broken
All this is fairly trivial but the downsides are that [1] you will likely
have to perform a new checkouts to properly refresh your workspace(s), and
[2] your local branches might not appreciate. The "git mv":s are causing
the main annoyances but we would really like the directory structure to
match the package naming.
Note that this applies to the master/HEAD branch only. The existing
stable-0.x branches will keep the legacy structure.
Unless, someone has an issue with this, I plan to commit the updated
structure this coming Monday. I'm sorry for any inconvenience that this may
cause you.
Bug364752 was opened to track this work.
Regards,
