Re: [eclipse-dev] Planning Meeting Notes - May 5, 2004



* Welcome
- New intro look is in the today's build
- Helped adding the intro handshake at the RCP level so that pure RCP apps
can register and show intro
- Reviewing the design to make sure it will work for various product teams
- Still refining SWT presentation
* PDE
- New editors in the build (although the MANIFEST.MF portion is still not
done - will be added in the next couple of days)
- Still not done. To do in the next week or so:
    - Finish the editors (this week)
    - RCP export (exporting a complete working RCP application with
startup.jar + branding etc.)
    - Improving self-hosting without update configurator (for RCPs that do
not have Update in the minimal set)
- We will enter into the polish/bug phase when these items are finished
- Lots of bugs fixed

* Help
- Help is ready for polish/bug fixes phase

* Update
- Changed the way plug-ins are installed, but should not affect most people
(will post the information on eclipse-dev)
- API cleanup
- Update is ready for polish/bug fixes phase
- Bug fixes

-------------------
 Discussion Topics
-------------------

----------
 Outreach
----------

--------
 Status
--------

Debug:
- bug fixing
- migration to standard "always/never" dialog, that now lives in JFace

Ant:
- bug fixing

Core/Expressions:
- removed dependencies to deprecated runtime API
- made expression language dynamic plug-in installation aware

Platform/Search:
- bounded search history

LTK:
- removed dependencies to deprecated runtime API
- preview page now filters synthetic composite changes
- preview page reveal first non composite change
- investigated to use new suspend/resume API to prevent blocking in the
  middle of a refactoring

JDT/UI:
- Quick fix: more fixes to resolve type mismatches: 'Change type of
  variable', 'Change type of method' and 'Add interface to type XYZ'.
- Udpate imports on paste: copy now remembers the needed imports for
  the copied code fragment and paste adds any missing imports.
- Refactoring:
  - NLS wizard now supports key renaming. If more than one key is
    selected the common prefix of all keys can be edited.
  - improved 'cancelability' of refactorings
  - investigate in decreasing memory consumption of rename virtual
    method refactoring
- Adapted code to new JDT/Core search API
- Organize import now generates minimal import changes. In the past the
  whole import container got replaced
- Use IProgressService instead of ProgressMonitor dialog were appropriate
- Add preferences UI for new compiler options 'unnecessary else' and
  'empty statement'
- Search:
  - added result filters to Java searches. The following filters are
    available:  hide matches in Javadoc, hide matches in import
statements,
    hide read accesses, hide write accesses

Team/CVS Status:
- made all CVS operations proper workspace look granularity
- polishing Team synchronize APIs
- removed prompting from background jobs. Instead, results can be accessed
  in the progress view.
- performance testing
- full synchronize pages shown in compare/merge dialogs
- adding support for switching to a branch without loosing outgoing
changes
- bug fixing
- bug triage

Rel. Eng.:
- bug fixing/investigating:  57897,56690, 60837, 55802, 60895
- looking at instrumenting automated test harness to take performance
  measurements with Dan Kehn
- bug fixing in internal build tools
- build machine maintenance
- Week of May 10, will run Integration builds Tuesday, Wednesday and
  Thursday at 00:10, 08:00, 12:00, 16:00 and 20:00 EDT if map files are
  updated.
