Main Agenda Items
- UI tests no longer function on HIPP10, likely due to advancements in SWT requirements and a complete lack of updates being done to HIPP10. We are migrating to JIRO. It is not a zero effort task, and it seems to be a hit to everyone still on HIPP/JIPP. Most of our builds on ci.eclipse.org/webtools are no longer running tests, which is not acceptable long term.
- CBI Bug 568551 on our breakage
- JIRO migration bug 568553 ongoing at https://ci-staging.eclipse.org/webtools/
- FAQ entry on what needs to be updated, followed by a section on getting our UI tests running
- Java EE builds are failing due their still using BREE of J2SE-1.4, which is not provided in JIRO. These are compilation failures. It is long past time to update.
- Dali has 22 failing tests
- Web Services has 146 failing tests. Orbit has added the Jakarta EE 8 versions of APIs that were removed in Java 11, making those usable as potential solutions.
- Releng needs to determine how to publish builds from JIRO
WTP 3.20 for Eclipse 4.18 and IDE 2020-12
- Standard shutdown rules for changes: Project Lead approval required for changes after M3, PMC Review for any changes after RC1 (e.g. to be in a RC2). So far, no RC2 has been requested.
- Project list with links to their pages, showing the current leads can be found here.
- Release Plan
- Bugs of WTP 3.20 (table).
- Jakarta EE Platform is closing in on Jakarta EE 9 with a target date on November 20th. Their Meeting and Community calendars. An incomplete list of items needed for WTP to support it properly can be found here: WTP "Jakarta EE 9" Bug Query, using a specific whiteboard value. The list needs more input and additions from the various project leads and committers.
- Java 16 is expected in March 2021. Java 17 is the next scheduled LTS release.
- Still watching for mentions of JOnAS support being desired.
- Project Leads, make sure you have a 3.20 release, scheduled for December 16th, 2020, to your project under https://projects.eclipse.org/projects/webtools . With the Bugzilla information filled out in your individual project metadata, you can see overviews like https://projects.eclipse.org/projects/webtools/releases/3.20/bugs . When you login in and then Edit from the PMI page, the link to create a New Release is on the right. 3.20 will GA on December 16th as part of 2020-12.
- For bugs that should be in the PLAN, use the "plan" keyword and a 3.20, 3.20 milestone, or 3.20 release candidate target.
- Bugs targeting 3.20 at a glance
- https://git.eclipse.org/r/#/q/status:open+webtools for open Gerrit Changes
- SimRel FAQ and Plan
- Bugzilla naming: Put the simrel into the Version that's reported against, e.g. "3.19 (2020-09)" since that's filled in by reporters, but keep the Target Milestone simple as before (3.20, 3.20 M1, etc.) so that bug queries don't get too convoluted.
- Schedule is for 13 weeks, 4 cycles per year:
- one week decompress and plan
- (3) three week milestones
- one week RC1, changes require Project Lead approval
- one week RC2, changes require Project Lead and PMC +1 approvals
- one week quiet and release
- We meet roughly once per Milestone / RC scheduled for 1 week before the candidate build day. Declare is 5 days later with the corresponding EPP 2 days after that, and official SimRel/IDE availability one day after that. WTP 3.20 and Eclipse IDE 2020-12 release on December 16, 2020.
Builds
- Release and CI builds use Java 11 by default, with toolchains setup so that BREEs are respected during the compile phase.
- Latest CI builds: https://hudson.eclipse.org/webtools/view/webtools_CI/
- Smoke Test
- Bugs reported since our last meeting
