...so that you can only install AJDT on supported levels of Eclipse.
It should be straightforward to add "match" entries to the plugin.xml to prereq
appropriate versions of the eclipse plugins, e.g needs version 3.0.0 or later.
I'm not sure whether we can easily check for different builds of 3.0, e.g. 3.0
final or later.
Comment 1 Helen Beeken CLA 2004-08-10 06:45:17 EDT 
The way to do this is to define the required version in the feature.xml file 
in the feature plugin. I've therefore replaced 

       <import plugin="org.eclipse.core.runtime"/>

with 

      <import plugin="org.eclipse.core.runtime" version="3.0.0" 
match="greaterOrEqual"/>


in the feature.xml file in org.eclipse.aspectj.feature.

It now doesn't let you install AJDT from the update site unless you have at 
least version 3.0.0 of the org.eclipse.core.runtime plugin (have tested this 
on 2.1.3, 3.0 (final) and 3.1 N20040807.

The fix should be integrated into the AJDT 1.1.12 release.
