Description Lars Vogel CLA 2019-06-17 04:43:18 EDT
I currently see an API baseline error in org.eclipse.core.jobs on the MANIFEST.MF

The minor version should be incremented in version 3.10.500, since new APIs have been added since 
 version 3.10.400

But the information which API has been added is missing. I suggest to add this information to the error message otherwise the error analysis for other than the author is really hard.

This will also be very useful as soon as Gerrit checks for such errors.

Vikas, could you add this information? I guess this will also make your life easier for future API tools support.

If you click at the error on manifest page, you would see a list of compatible changes - similar to https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/attachment.cgi?id=278934

Yes for the IDE. Will we see these also on the command line?

This information is there as getAdditionalProposalInfo from the version resolution which in turn returns from marker.getAttribute(IApiMarkerConstants.VERSION_NUMBERING_ATTR_DESCRIPTION, null).

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
