msvc_hudson: resources to enable hudson build farm execution for ros on windows

This stack is now being used to execute a hudson build farm job to test/build ros on a windows platform. This package provides resources relevant to that.

• Homepage: http://ros.org/wiki/msvc_hudson

Overview

Resources to get the auto-build up and running on hudson.

Machine Setup

• Install java: http://www.java.com/en/download/index.jsp
• Create a user `rosbuild`.

This is an ''ugly'', but necessary constraint of the script on the hudson server. It also needs a specific directory in which to operate (i.e. look for the script that needs to be run).

• Create the working directory and download a few scripts.

> mkdir -p %USERPROFILE%\hudson\workspace\roswin
> cd %USERPROFILE%/hudson/workspace/roswin
> wget --no-check-certificate https://raw.github.com/stonier/win_ros/master/msvc/msvc_sdk/scripts/fuerte/schebang.bat
> wget --no-check-certificate https://raw.github.com/stonier/win_ros/master/msvc/msvc_hudson/resources/hudson.bat
> wget --no-check-certificate https://raw.github.com/stonier/win_ros/master/msvc/msvc_hudson/resources/slave.jar

Currently, I assume that:

• all tools required by the build environment are installed (including windows sdk7.1).
• rosdeps are installed in C:
