Do you know update site addresses for *latest* eclipse components?

Question

I am looking for all addresses related to:

• 3.x eclipse itself (milestones and/or integration builds)
• 3.x other components (GEF, GMF, EMF, ...)

In the spirit of answering my own question, I do have an answer for:

• 3.5 eclipse itself, with some details and caveats,
• 3.6 Helios, with the steps involved to follow the updates.

However, If you have further addresses, either for eclipse or other eclipse components, please publish them here.

Answer 1

Update September 2009: see also addresses for eclipse 3.6 Helios

For eclipse itself, the eclipse wiki

• 3.5milestones http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/updates/3.5milestones
• 3.5-I-builds http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/updates/3.5-I-builds

However, the Milestone names are not there yet. (For instance, the build number there is 20080807 is assumed to be 3.5M1)

The update site will be added as a location for builds in order to get published to automatically: see bug 248509

Warning: the update process in itself might generate some freeze (see bug 234916) which might be solved by using a local http client (bug 220240).

Meaning you should first update your eclipse installation with the ECF_Apache_Httpclient-Based_Provider update site (http://download.eclipse.org/technology/ecf/httpclientrepo), then try the different update sites mentionned for eclipse components.

Update May 2009

The page "compare package" now provides all links to different released packages
(See links to the left of the page: Europa 3.3, Ganymede 3.4, Ganymede SR1, and Galileo 3.5Mx)

The current available Galileo M6 lists packages built with M6 release. That address will soon be not valid since Galileo M7 has just been published (May, 2d 2009).
The new Galileo packages (M7) will then be at this address.
