BE-CO Eclipse
• Officially supported platform
• Regularly updated and tested
• Pre-configured - other tools within
– Commonbuild, DevShell, JDK
• Succeeds the old unsupported Eclipse(s)
• v3.5 does not run correctly with Java 7 (64-bit)
– “/local/javadev/eclipse” (to be removed at Easter)
• Action: please migrate to BE-CO Eclipse
• Details at…

acc-co SVN repository
• Problem: acc-co repository is too large
– Slow, difficult to backup/restore, and filter
– IT has asked us to reduce the size
• Plan: Reset – remove the history
– Keep single revision of current trunk only
– Rename original to “acc-co-old”
• and make available read-only
• When: 1st weekend in May – 4th May 2013
• Sorry that the process is quite involved…

Commonbuild Next Generation
• Why? Eg. improve dependency management, releasing
• Low impact for projects
– Still uses product.xml
– Similar IDE integration and targets
– Already building many projects and CO Testbed
• Dependency management policy will change:
– Uses latest versions of dependencies not “highest”
– This may break some larger projects
• PCROPS replaced by maven repository
• Aiming for delivery September 2013
• Phased migration strategy
– Start with libraries up to top-level applications
– Still working out details on how/when to migrate
