Description _ pkuzel 2001-10-30 15:07:33 UTC 
I changed extra binary /core/release/lib/ext/crimson.jar but
the change should not be distributed to users as it contains

  if (...getHostName().startsWith("nbbuilder") {
    // apply patch
  }

In the other words it have effect only on builder machine.

To help your automatic process the commit log may be
prefixed by DO_NOT_UPDATE_USER_BINARIES distinguishing such cases.

Could you implement and document it?
Comment 1 Jesse Glick 2001-10-30 19:59:16 UTC 
Ick, wouldn't this be better done outside CVS by some special trick on
the builder machine? E.g. a classpath patch? Or use a system property
and let it be distributed generally?
Comment 2 _ pkuzel 2001-10-31 09:59:12 UTC 
Yes, a system property is another acceptable solution.
Special tricks bypassing CVS do not sound good for me.
Comment 3 rbalada 2002-02-20 17:12:03 UTC 
Won't fix
Comment 4 _ pkuzel 2002-02-21 09:37:17 UTC 
We still may need test builds using different binaries than exported
ones.
Comment 5 rbalada 2002-02-21 10:26:19 UTC 
Petr,

provide us with detail procedure plan how to do that.
Comment 6 _ pkuzel 2002-02-21 10:31:04 UTC 
Branches, tags, an index file, ...
Comment 7 Marek Grummich 2002-07-19 17:20:19 UTC 
Target milestone was changed from not determined to TBD
Comment 8 Jesse Glick 2002-08-28 21:50:58 UTC 
No details, closing.

Issue #26758 should make nbextra-vs.-nb_all irrelevant.

Test creators can run tests with special system properties turned on -
this is up to the test developers.
