Discussion/Reminders

  • No status meeting for next two Wednesdays (due to holidays). Next meeting will be on Wednesday, January 7, 2015. Happy New Year!
- Builds will continue to run via cron jobs, but on "reduced effort". Meaning, if they fail, the people to fix them may not be available to get them running again, at least in the usual timely fashion.
- Even without status meetings, issues or problems can still be posted to dev lists or bugzilla. At least some of us will be checking mail occasionally, but again, expect slow downs ahead (to quote many traffic signs :)
  • Need decision on performance test settings for -Xms and -Xmx. These are often set to same value, to reduce effects of normal garbage collection. I had originally set both to 1024M, but that caused "api tools performance tests" not to run (bug 455135). After investigating, I see that Performance/Automated_Tests says "Add -Xms256M -Xmx256M or similar to the VM arguments to avoid memory pressure during the measurements." So, questions are:
- Should infrastructure set these values at all? Or, leave up to individual tests to set as they like?
- If infrastructure should, what are correct values? 256M seems too small for these days. (I think when that recommendation was made, Java 1.4 was still being used!) Is 1024M better or too high?
Dani: See bug 455135 comment 5

  • have solved the last "infrastructure" problem with performance tests. I made temporary fix for now, so "fingerprint graphs" should be produced starting with Wednesday's Nightly build, and longer term correct fix tracked in bug 453958.
- Then still some issues with some test suites (e.g. api analysis, UA tests are not running?). I will open bugs for those once I get a little more data. (Might require "component teams" to investigate and fix?)
  • I will be updating "download pages" to the "thin Solstice theme" this week .... so may be some temporary oddities, if not (repairable) breakages, on a few days. bug 451808. This work will not be "complete" for M4, but, presentable.

  • We are using Tycho 0.22 snapshot now (soon to be released). This will allow some previous "work arounds" to be removed.

  • The "long running" performance tests are now (half) working for I-builds (no "baseline" yet). bug 452181 [Note: just now, 10:30 Wednesday, I did define and start the "long running baseline" test -- but, this will cause the "long running" tests against current I-build to re-run. So, in 12 hours or so check back for long running baseline results ... and, the current unit tests for long running job may change status, if some fail second time through].
- See results page, especially the pass/fail status of those "unit tests". Including the baseline pass/fail status (does not include "long running", yet).
- I suggest if those "failing" tests can not be fixed easily, that bugs be opened for them failing, capture what data you can, and then disable the tests until someone can fix them.
  • Plan is to continue to run "quick running" performance tests even on Nightly builds, but add the "long running" ones only for weekly builds (I and M).
  • M-build performance tests will start next week.
  • I will "restore a theme" (add headers, etc.) (from Solstice "thin") to download pages this coming week {bug|451808}
  • Note: webmasters will be upgrading our Mac test machine to 10.10 (Yosemite) this week (Thursday planned). Might cause some unit tests to fail? bug 447634.
  • Greatest accomplishment of the week? If not the year? I finally got rid of that column on download pages that just said "(http)"! :)

  • I can not be at today's (11/12) Status meeting due to a conflicting meeting. But ...
  • Starting to get some useful performance data: such as see yesterday's I-build.
  • Obviously a ways to go ... but, I outline my priorities and "next steps" in bug 444243#c8. Comments welcome.
  • One I forgot to mention in bug, was porting all this back to "maintenance builds". That won't happen until nearly "end of December" which means you (we) will only have about one month to assess and possibly fix any performance regressions in Luna SR2. (In other words, not much time ... but ... not many changes either, so shouldn't be many regressions. we can hope.
  • Please "sanity checking" the numbers and scenarios. For example, if you have a test that is being listed as taking 3 minutes, but you are pretty sure it should be more on the order of 30 seconds, please make a note of it in the bug {bug|444243}}. After all, there might have a bug in my scripts ... or the complicated tools I inherited :)

  • Almost We are getting performance data into database! bug 390821
Still just "short set" of 12 test suites.
But ... "assert against baseline" should work. (not sure how to verify ... unless someone can "slow down" a test to confirm ... ?)
I did reverse order, and run "baseline" tests first, and then "current build" so assert works against "matching" baseline.
BUT ... one problem with concept, several "technical" ones. Details in bug 390821
  • Working on a few more "Orbit bundles"
- HttpComponents Client Version: 4.3.5

- Links will be in "logs" section of Test Results page (once the result are ready -- about same time unit tests are done), such as following two examples. (I know those results pages are, still, "sloppy", but, going to focus on "database" part, before cleaning them up)

Discussion/Reminders

  • The new WIKI page with Eclipse feature proposals and the WIKI link attached to the N&N page of the milestone
[Daniel R] The main goal of the solution is to promote the development of the release. When someone during the milestone comes up with the idea about some new, interesting feature for Eclipse then they can provide proper entry to the proposed WIKI. The N&N however can have some "new feature proposal available" icon and proper link to the WIKI. The feature has to be provided in the installable form from the external site, i.e. Eclipse Market or Git Hub. When feature is stable enough and accepted by the users it can be merged to the master Git repository.
Additionally the WIKI page and indirectly the N&N one can contain the link to the Bugzilla or blog where the new feature get deeply discussed. When we agree to go with it we have to figure out the way of filtering the craps that can be published from time to time. However I think, we can postpone it till a first crap
What can we achieve by this solution?
  • incoming release can be earlier announced by the blog entries dedicated to the new features and it can encourage the new people from the Community for helping with the development of the new release as well as the users for switching to Eclipse as the primary IDE or RCP platform
  • new interesting architectural/design changes can be proposed with the features. It will be real prove of concept and not only "raw" idea sent via e-mail
  • some really strong Eclipse developers/consultants can find the idea interesting and help with development of the new release
  • during implementation of the new feature you have to quite often fix some defects that block the feature or get exposed by it, what indirectly improves the quality of Eclipse
  • current solution - announcing the new ideas by mailing list - is not sufficient in my opinion. Some ideas finish with several discussion e-mails. Even when something get implemented it can be forgotten in the moment. Having the persisted list with the feature proposals on WIKI that is connected to N&N page, better visible than the mailing list archive, seems to be better solution in my opinion
[Daniel R]The new bug gets opened for the idea, please put your comments there - bug 441264

  • worked a lot getting "solstice" theme on pages I am involved/responsible for:
- www Eclipse Project home
- main download page (individual build pages need LOTS of work)
- www Tools Project home
- www Orbit Project home
- main Orbit downloads page, and even
- individual Orbit Build pages, and even on
- "build machine"!
  • Lots could be improved (tracking Eclipse improvements in bug 437969), but seems we are off to a good start, and the theme seems sound, with a good foundation (http://getbootstrap.com/)
- and webmasters have been very helpful and responsive to issues found.
  • removed red X's from all "released builds" (even on archives) since it was confusing to some users. bug 437872
  • Test results from "Mac" not (initially) collected/summarized for I20140701-0800 bug 438708
- I fixed immediate case, and added more error checking, to (I hope) get better get notified if something goes wrong.
  • Up coming priories:
- bug 407775 product definition needs to cleaning uninstall Symbolic links
- Sim release changes/fixes/branching, prep for maintenance and Mars aggregation
- And of course the "performance tests" (FYI, we did lose the GSoC student ... he decided a job would be more rewarding, for some reason. :)
  • Do you read the "Eclipse Newsletter"? I often don't ... but plan to start, now that I've been "spot lighted" in the June Issue.
- [Dani] OK, OK, I'm going to read it! :-)

  • Congratulations for Luna! Ready for Mars?
  • Please tag Luna Release (by Friday)
bug 437721 - Tag Luna Release
  • Please update "parent pom versions"
bug 437787 - Update the parent poms from 4.4.0 to 4.5.0
  • Rough plan is to start "nightlies" now, and have first I build next Tuesday (7/1).
  • And then start 4.4.1 builds approximately "mid July".
None of which is to say no one deserves a "break" (or vacation, etc.) ... just didn't want "lack of builds" to slow anyone down who happened to be working.

Seems to be going well, fairly easy. Will be better if/when they make a "matching" theme for wiki.
have consolidated what's been provided in bug:

Will Equinox and p2 be contributing?
Still need to sort out best "active committer list" (project leads till need to sanity check)
  • I have promoted main artifacts/repos (to allow mirroring) ... will need "polish" on some pages (especially given new Solstice theme)

  • [dw] We need "semi-coordinated" change for bug 431273 - react to change in EUA
After much "debugging", my recommendation is to do global change of
license-feature-version="1.0.0.qualifier"

to

license-feature-version="0.0.0"
Can we say "do by Thursday afternoon"? That'd give time for some test builds, and "recovery" on Friday, if needed, for any that are missed?

    • The feature was initially requested via bug 329722
    • [dw] As agreed at status meeting, I opened a bug for Mars: bug 432003 - Refine and Redefine our Features
  • [dw] We are exposed to losing "webstart function" on recent version of Java 7 (and 8). See bug 421294. Should it be marked "helpwanted" ... deprecated? ... removed? ... seems no one has expertise to fix it? (And, from reading the some of the "work arounds" people have come up with, sounds pretty complicated to fix ... (might require users to have access to unsigned bundles, which they'd have to sign themselves? But, I could be mis-interpreting the "work arounds".)

  • bug 431478 added "stats" to Java 8 patch downloads. (1711, since Saturday ... missed "first 10 days" it was released.)
Anything else we should gather stats on (from p2 repo)?
  • bug 431540 moved some of our "post-build" processing into the build-proper, as it should be. (still lots more could be done).
  • Working on improving "test framework" so we can have accurately labeled (and variable number of) VM's and architectures for testing a given build.
My hope is for Nightlies, we would use Java 8, for Linux, Java 7 for Windows and Mac.
(Mac has been updated to "1.7 update 51", still need to do for Windows).
But, for I-builds, would be nice do 6 tests, 3 "platforms" times 2 VMs -- or is that overkill?
  • need to move "orbit build" to Hudson HIPP instance [though, will still be same script/PDE based build].
  • (still) need to investigate/plan for performance tests.
  • (still) need to get "releng tests" back in build, and tests -- such as count number of features and bundles in repository and compare with expected number.

bug 428462 - Do not display build id on splash screen (by default).
If objections, please comment in the bug.
For now we'll leave these builds "on the build machine" but see wiki for locations, if you want to try one out.
One implication (request) is even after I-build completes on Tuesday morning, try to avoid releasing anything new to master/integration (unless required to fix I-build) ... say until 2 or 3 (Eastern) on Tuesday, since after normal I-build (starts at 8) we do a weekly "Y-build" at 1 PM, that's just like the I-build, except we use the new Java 8 JDT Beta Compiler ... the intent being able to compare the two builds.
But, don't let this request slow you down ... if you need to release ... go ahead and release.
  • My current priority is getting new Logos/images "in the build" by M6 ... and then will work on running unit tests with Java 8 Early Access VM.
