New release of CppCheck Plugin Needed

[Jack Zylkin]

An important bugfix was recently merged to the CppCheck plugin repo (JENKINS-42727). It allows multiple instances of CppCheck builds to run concurrently without blocking each other. Each of my CppCheck builds takes about 1 hr to run, and I am unable to run them in parallel because of this bug. This bug is causing a substantial bottleneck in my pipeline, so I would really like the fix to be incorporated into a release so I can deploy it.  

 

The fix has already been merged into the project – someone just needs to make a new tagged release of this plugin. I have already contacted one of the admins for this plugin, who has said he does not work on it anymore. The other admin was not responsive.

How can I make a build of this plugin and release it myself?

If I am not able to do it myself, who should I approach about doing it?

Thanks.

Hi Jack,

The best way would be to take ownership of the plugin if you are interested.

In order to grant you release permissions, we just need a confirmation from any of the current maintainers a pull request with a https://github.com/jenkins-infra/repository-permissions-updater/blob/master/permissions/plugin-cppcheck.yml modification. The latter option would be preferable. Once we have such authorization, we will be able to transfer ownership.

Hopefully it helps,
Oleg

I would not know what to do with ownership if I had it. I don't know how to build and release a version of a Jenkins plugin.  Can you point me to instructions?
