Re: [ecf-dev] org.eclipse.ecf.example.clients & IllegalMonitorStateException
|
Hi Dann,
The source of the problem is a conflict introduced because EMF is
commonly used. The reason is mainly that EMF is extremely useful. Your
'advanced discovery system' would suffer from the same problem if it had
been around for a while in different versions and was subject to heavy
reuse by lots of projects.
The overhead of using EMF is often very small. For three reasons. 1) It
is likely that it's part of the mix already, 2) the EMF runtime is
indeed small, and 3) it is well written in terms of performance.
As for p2's ability to "solve all this", what magic exactly is it that
you think that p2 should possess? The way I see it, p2 is showing it
strenght by ensuring that all requirements expressed by the bundles are
honored. It refuses the install and provides a detailed explanation of
the conflict. The difference compared to the old update manager is that
problems are discovered early and not as exceptions during runtime.
Regards,
Thomas Hallgren

Hi Scott,
Strange. As the author of an (admittedly proprietary, yet much more)
advanced discovery system, which also came with several UI views in
Eclipse, I wonder why it has been necessary to include EMF
dependencies? We have never identified the need to do so. Quite the
contrary, we have found EMF to introduce only unnecessary overhead.
Is this a new hobby thing of people to play with EMF, just for the
sake of it? :)
Markus, your feedback would be appreciated! Thanks in advance!
Regards,
Dann
