[cdt-dev] CDT-8.4 requires Eclipse 4.x ... CDT-8.3.x maintenance ?

Hi all,

 

While CDT-8.3 could work on Eclipse 3.8.2 it seems that CDT-8.4 now requires Eclipse 4.x (some CSS dependency in o.e.cdt.ui).

 

I seem to have missed the discussion where this was agreed on.

For some in the community, this might be a very relevant thing to know;

So if some discussion has happened, can you point me to it ?

And make sure it gets mentioned in the Luna Release Review.

 

TCF-1.2 for instance is designed to still run on Eclipse 3.8.2 , that’s what we agreed with some of our adopters;

therefore we can only depend on CDT-8.3 and none of the newer API’s (like bug 303083 – sigh – trying to find a solution here).

We are of course contributing to Luna and testing against Eclipse-4.4 / CDT-8.4 but we’re building against CDT-8.3 and the old API’s only.

 

I see some maintenance still ongoing in the cdt_8_3 branch:

http://git.eclipse.org/c/cdt/org.eclipse.cdt.git/log/?h=cdt_8_3

Could the CDT committers consider a CDT 8.3.1 maintenance release for those stuck on Eclipse 3.8.2 at some point ?

 

Thanks,

Martin
