In release 1.31.0 Simantics started using uses the wonderful tool from Obeo (https://github.com/mbarbero/fr.obeo.releng.targetplatform) to generate .target
files from .tpd
files which allow much simpler specification of the target contents and also composition of .tpd files via inclusion.
In the following steps, it is recommended to ensure every .target
file is up-to-date by regenerating them from .tpd
files. While doing so, take care to use up-to-date online contents to perform the generation.

Running these two builds will ensure that both the external components required to build the SDK and the Simantics SDK for the new release branch are published online at http://www.simantics.org/download/release/x.y.z[.w]/
.
After this, whenever changes are pushed/merged to release/x.y.z[.w]
branch in Gerrit, new SDK/Simantics SDK builds are triggered automatically and they will publish the results at the same location online.
This means that one does not have to do any tricks after this to build and publish the SDK as a P2 repository online. It is an automated process that is performed by the SDK/Simantics SDK Jenkins job.
