Polarsys/ReleaseEngineering/Definitions
Polarsys definitions for release engineering
- A component is an Eclipse, Polarsys, or LTS component.
- A Polarsys package is an Eclipse platform enriched by a set of Eclipse components and Polarsys components, such as the "Eclipse Modeling Tools" package for Eclipse. A Package contains a consistent set of built and integrated components.
- A Polarsys platform is a Polarsys package built for a given purpose. Kinds of Polarsys platform:
- Polarsys Operational Platform (POP): this platform integrates certified components and respects a time-based planning.
- Polarsys Experimental Platform (PEP): this platform integrates validated components; some are already certified.
- In the future, Polarsys could be declined in other kinds of platforms.
- A Polarsys release is a delivered version of a Polarsys package, like an Eclipse (e.g., Eclipse 3.x, 4.y), according to a Polarsys release planning.
