RE: [cross-project-issues-dev] Java 1.5


Just a quick reminder, it's a good idea to specify the execution environment in any bundle that requires Java 1.5 (actually a good idea for any bundle).  Specifying the bundle's execution environment ensures graceful deactivation of that bundle when the required VM is not available, rather than the random ClassNotFoundExceptions and other errors you would get if your bundle ran on the wrong VM.  More info:

http://wiki.eclipse.org/index.php/Execution_Environments

The platform project itself targets a variety of execution environments, from minimal foundation 1.0 class libraries for RCP, to Java 1.5 for advanced features not available on older VMs.  See Appendix 1 of the project plan for the target execution environment of each platform project bundle:

Thanks, Ed. I was thinking more about the runtime for your plug-ins. Will EMF 3.0 run on a 1.4 VM?

Re: [cross-project-issues-dev] Java 1.5

 

Doug,


Supporting and exploiting Java 5.0 is the main development item for EMF 3.0.   We hope to make generating the 5.0 features optional and to ensure that generated code can compile and run against the 2.2 EMF runtime so that folks needing support for Java 1.4 will be able to achieve that.

Hey gang, I’m just wondering if any of the projects participating in Europa are planning on dropping support for Java 1.4, i.e. are planning on using Java 1.5 features.
