Taxonomic Editor Release¶
The Taxonomic Editor is using eclipse tycho for integrating the OSGI build process into maven. Unfortunately the maven release plugin is not yet working with eclipse tycho (version 0.13) .
This document explains all steps necessary to create a new release of the Taxonomic Editor. It is desirable to automate this process (see #xxxx).
- Table of contents
- Taxonomic Editor Release
Prerequisites¶
Make sure that all relevant changes have been merged into the branch (or trunk) you want to do the release from
There has to be a released cdmlib version (no snapshot), which the Taxonomic Editor depends on
Adapting cdmlib version¶
In taxeditor-parent's pom.xml, change the version number of cdmlib to the desired version
In eu.etaxonomy.taxditor.cdmlib,
mvn validate
to let maven copy the desired cdmlib jars.Adapt the classpath to includethe desired cdmlib version in eu.etaxonomy.taxeditor.cdmlib
- Open MANIFEST.MF in 'Plugin Manifest Editor'
- Select 'Runtime' tab
- In the "Classpath" section, remove the entries for cdmlib
- Add the cdmlib jars with the desired version.
Setting the release version number¶
Bump the version number to .BUILDQUALIFIER, e.g. 3.0.10.201202071215. From taxeditor-parent execute:
mvn -Dtycho.mode=maven org.eclipse.tycho:tycho-versions-plugin:set-version -DnewVersion=<version>.BUILDQUALIFIER
This version numbers in poms and MANIFEST.MF files should be changed now.
Attention: This procedure did not work for the eu.etaxonomy.taxeditor.product file in the eu.etaxonomy.taxeditor project and the version number change had to be added manually (2012-02-07).
Create products¶
You can create the products with
mvn package
The created products reside in eu.etaxonomy.taxeditor/target
The packages should be moved to a folder with the name of the unqualified version (e.g. 3.0.9) in http://wp5.e-taxonomy.eu/download/taxeditor/
Update the stable symbolic link to point to the new folder
Create tag for release¶
Commit the changes and create a tag with the release version number in http://dev.e-taxonomy.eu/svn/tags/taxeditor/release/
Bump trunk to new version¶
Update the version number to -SNAPSHOT. From taxeditor-parent execute:
mvn -Dtycho.mode=maven org.eclipse.tycho:tycho-versions-plugin:set-version -DnewVersion=<version+1>-SNAPSHOT
Attention: This procedure did not work for the eu.etaxonomy.taxeditor.product file in the eu.etaxonomy.taxeditor project and the version number change had to be added manually (2012-02-07).
Create new development branch¶
Commit the changes and create a new branch named -SNAPSHOT in http://dev.e-taxonomy.eu/svn/branches/taxeditor/
