Until then we are going to release a few testing releases (beta) for interested users. You will find instructions how to install and use these beta-releases on this page.
  
Before building, several checks have to be made in the sources:
 
* clean build all RodinCore plug-ins, so that generated files are regenerated using repository sources
 
* JUnit tests are OK
 
* versions of plug-ins, features and product obey [http://wiki.eclipse.org/Version_Numbering Eclipse versioning policy]
 
* API Tooling build against previous Rodin release produces no errors on any plug-in
 
* the correct Eclipse version is referenced in the p2 configuration (org.rodinp.platform/p2.inf)
 
* branding plug-ins display the correct Eclipse version (text information found in several about.properties/plugin.properties files)
 
* SVN project org.rodinp.releng is up to date, i.e. all required plug-ins are listed/processed in
 
** rodin-core.psf
 
** rodin-tests.psf
 
** customTargets.xml (copySources)
 
** export-RodinCore-src-jars.xml
 
* documentation is up to date for /org.rodinp.platform/html/root.html
 
* generated documentation matches latest wiki sources for
 
** /org.rodinp.keyboard/doc
 
* make a local test within Eclipse:
 
** update buildId and buildVersion in org.rodinp.releng/build.properties
 
** import (binary with linked content) org.eclipse.pde.build into the Eclipse workspace containing Rodin sources
 
** run "Build Rodin Product.launch": if everything went well, a directory "${workspace_loc}/../work/result" contains zipped archives for every platform, else errors are reported in the console.

'''Warning''':
  
When everything works, any changes to the sources made during this verification process are pushed to the Source Forge repository.
+
Don't use the TextEditor yet with your production models!

==Build Parameters==
 
  
Several parameters need to be defined for each build:
+
==Installing ==
# the platform version, that is the user-visible version which is displayed in ''About Rodin Platform''.  Example of versions are <tt>1.0</tt> and <tt>2.3RC1</tt>.
+
The TextEditor relies on features of the Rodin release 1.0 which is not yet released. Therefore you will have to create a new Rodin installation. The following steps will guide you through this process:
# the Git commit number, which permits to know very precisely which source versions are used for the build.
 
# the Git branch from which the commit can be checked out
 
# the full platform version used for provisioning. This version is made of the platform version and the commit number, separated by a dot. Example of full versions are <tt>2.8RC1.r365721c</tt> and <tt>2.8.1.r6f52165</tt>.
 
  
==Fetching Sources==
+
# Download a build of Rodin from our CruiseControl server:
 +
## Point your browser to [http://cruise.cs.uni-duesseldorf.de:8080/dashboard/tab/build/detail/org.rodinp.platform]
 +
## Download a zip file with a name starting with ''rodin-product'' and matching your platform. For example ''rodin-product-linux.gtk.x86.zip'' if you are working on a Linux system.
 +
# Extract the downloaded zip file.
 +
# Start Rodin from the folder where you extracted the zip file in the previous step.
 +
# Install the TextEditor:
 +
## In the menu choose ''Help'' -> ''Software Updates...''
 +
## Select the tab ''Available Software''
 +
## Click ''Add Site...''
 +
## Use the location URL: <tt>http://www.stups.uni-duesseldorf.de/update-beta/</tt>
 +
## Back in ''Available Software'' open the update site you just added
 +
## Select ''Event-B EMF Framework'' and ''Event-B TextEditor'' and click ''Install...''
 +
# Restart Rodin as suggested.
  
Sources are fetched from Subversion using the script below.  The script can be run on any Unix machine and takes the first two parameters described above (i.e., platform version and subversion revision).  For instance, to build Rodin 1.1, the script was invoked as
+
Now you are ready to use the TextEditor.
fetchSources 1.1 7661
 
  
The script itself is

#
 
#  Fetch sources of the Rodin Platform from the Subversion repository on
 
#  SourceForge.
 
#

        : OK
 
    else
 
        fatal "Invalid GIT commit: $GIT_COMMIT"
 
    fi
 
}

    git clone --branch $GIT_BRANCH $GITROOT gitrepo
 
    cd gitrepo
 
    git checkout $GIT_COMMIT
 
 
    mkdir ../sources

==Installing Eclipse for Headless Build==
+
==Usage ==
 
 
To install Eclipse for headless build, you first need to download two bundles from the Eclipse download site:
 
* <tt>eclipse-SDK-${VERSION}-${PLATFORM}.tar.gz</tt>
 
* <tt>eclipse-${VERSION}-delta-pack.zip</tt>
 
where <tt>VERSION</tt> is the version of Eclipse (e.g., <tt>3.4.2</tt>) and <tt>PLATFORM</tt> specifies the host platform for the build (e.g., <tt>linux-gtk</tt>).
 
 
 
Once downloaded, you need to extract the first archive, and then the second archive on top of the first. You now have an Eclipse installation able to build binary distribution for all platforms supported by Eclipse.
 
 
 
==Building the Platform==
 
 
 
To build the platform, you just need to run the script below after possibly modifying some of the variables at the beginning of it.  The meaning of the variables is
 
{| border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="5"
 
| <tt>BUILD_ID</tt>
 
| Simple platform version (first parameter above)
 
|-
 
| <tt>SVNREV</tt>
 
| Subversion revision number with an <tt>r</tt> prepended
 
|-
 
| <tt>VERSION</tt>
 
| Full platform version used for provisioning (must contain <tt>$SVNREV</tt> as qualifier)
 
|-
 
| <tt>JAVA_HOME</tt>
 
| Absolute path to a Java Runtime Environment
 
|-
 
| <tt>BUILD_BASE</tt>
 
| Absolute path to the directory used for building. As a result of a previous step, this directory must contain a <tt>sources</tt> folder where the Rodin sources have been downloaded.
 
|-
 
| <tt>ECLIPSE_HOME</tt>
 
| Absolute path to the Eclipse installation (including the delta pack) to use for building
 
|-
 
| <tt>PDE_BUILD</tt>
 
| Absolute path to the PDE plug-in in your Eclipse installation.
 
|-
 
| <tt>BASE_OS</tt>
 
| Operating system of the host platform
 
|-
 
| <tt>BASE_WS</tt>
 
| Windowing system of the host platform
 
|-
 
| <tt>BASE_ARCH</tt>
 
| Architecture of the host platform

==Post Build Verifications==
 
 
 
When the build worked, the "work/result" directory contains zipped archives for all platforms.
 
For each of them, check that:
 
* "rodin" binary is an executable file (for Linux and Mac)
 
* a directory "dropins" exists at the root (under "rodin", among "features", plugins", ...)
 
* in "configuration/org.eclipse.equinox.simpleconfigurator/bundles.info", plug-in "org.eclipse.equinox.p2.reconciler.dropins" is configured with auto start mode ("true" at the end of the line)
 
 
 
Failures must be manually corrected. Final archives shall match the above requirements.
 
 
 
==Providing Sources==
 
 
 
Sources must also be provided, in both these ways:
 
* compressed source archive, as fetched through [[#Fetching Sources]]
 
* archive suitable for inclusion in a target platform (see [[Generating source bundles for inclusion in a target platform configuration]])
 
* SVN tag under ''/svnroot/rodin-b-sharp/tags/RodinCore/x.y''
 
 
 
==Last operations to perform==
 
*Ensure that the download of the uploaded version of Rodin is here by default
 
*Update the main wiki page:
 
**http://wiki.event-b.org/index.php/Main_Page
 
**The image "out now" is to be changed
 
**The link "learn more" should point to the release notes
 
**The link "download now" should point to the SF repository
 
*The Platform releases page should be updated:
 
**http://wiki.event-b.org/index.php/Rodin_Platform_Releases
 
*The 64 bits page should be updated:
 
**http://wiki.event-b.org/index.php/Rodin_64_bit
 
* A group for the new release is available on Bug and Feature Request trackers.
 
*A mail is sent on the user + announce rodin SF lists.

Revision as of 10:34, 13 May 2009

The first version of the Text Editor will be released in a few weeks, that means in second half of June and not before the Rodin release 1.0 has been published.

Until then we are going to release a few testing releases (beta) for interested users. You will find instructions how to install and use these beta-releases on this page.


Warning:

Don't use the TextEditor yet with your production models!

  • The TextEditor is still in heavy development
  • It is based on a new Rodin version which uses a changed database model and therefore is not compatible with older versions.


Installing

The TextEditor relies on features of the Rodin release 1.0 which is not yet released. Therefore you will have to create a new Rodin installation. The following steps will guide you through this process:

  1. Download a build of Rodin from our CruiseControl server:
    1. Point your browser to [1]
    2. Download a zip file with a name starting with rodin-product and matching your platform. For example rodin-product-linux.gtk.x86.zip if you are working on a Linux system.
  2. Extract the downloaded zip file.
  3. Start Rodin from the folder where you extracted the zip file in the previous step.
  4. Install the TextEditor:
    1. In the menu choose Help -> Software Updates...
    2. Select the tab Available Software
    3. Click Add Site...
    4. Use the location URL: http://www.stups.uni-duesseldorf.de/update-beta/
    5. Back in Available Software open the update site you just added
    6. Select Event-B EMF Framework and Event-B TextEditor and click Install...
  5. Restart Rodin as suggested.

Now you are ready to use the TextEditor.
