Version 3, last updated by Iulian Dragos at December 15, 2011 14:15 UTC

Hudson is now being used to generate nightly builds of the Scala IDE for Eclipse. Build artefacts are posted on the Scala IDE download site.

Currently the following variants are being generated,

  • Builds of the Scala IDE 2.0.x branch against the 2.8.3-SNAPSHOT release of the Scala toolchain.
  • Builds of the Scala IDE 2.0.x and 2.1.x (master) branch against the 2.9.2-SNAPSHOT release of the Scala toolchain.
  • Builds of the Scala IDE 2.0.x and 2.1.x (master) branch against the trunk of the Scala toolchain.
  • Builds of the Scala IDE wip_exp_backport branch against the 2.8.1 patched release of the Scala toolchain.

The intention is that 2.8.2 release candidates will be followed up until a final release for the IDE (2.0.0). Then, the nightly builds will be

  • Builds of the Scala IDE 2.0.x and 2.1.x (master) branch against the 2.9.2-SNAPSHOT release of the Scala toolchain.
  • Builds of the Scala IDE 2.0.x and 2.1.x (master) branch against the trunk of the Scala toolchain.

Once we're satisfied that we have something which qualifies as a release of the Scala IDE we will add the following nightly build,

  • Builds of the Scala IDE release branch against the trunk of the Scala toolchain.

Along with the actual release(s), these three permutations of nightly build profiles should satisfy most users needs.
