| 2 | The files in this directory, in theory, are not used |
| 3 | in production builds on build.eclipse.org. |
| 4 | |
| 5 | They are provided as "default values" that may need |
| 6 | to be changed on other machines. |
| 7 | |
| 8 | The are given here as examples of how someone might |
| 9 | override various build properties on their own machine. |
| 10 | |
| 11 | These files, if used, should be in the directory named in |
| 12 | the STANDARD_PROPERTIES_DIR environment variable, which |
| 13 | is set in the "commonVariations" file. |
| 14 | |
| 15 | Note to build developers: the "defaults" here, in the |
| 16 | CVS version, should "written in" as default values in build |
| 17 | scripts, so the eclipse build.eclipse "official builds" are |
| 18 | always correct, even without these files. It is best to keep |
| 19 | these files "up to date", though, as a means of documenting |
| 20 | what can be varied from machine to machine. |
| 21 | |
| 22 | Individual "local builds" should use the LOCAL_BUILD_PROPERTIES_DIR |
| 23 | mechanism to provide their own "local" parameters. See the |
| 24 | localBuildExample directory. |
