Hi,

I recently noticed that the Extension Point Schema Editor introduced a change in the schema definition for extension points.
It changed the element from
- element/annotation/appinfo to element/annotation/appInfo
- attribute/annotation/appinfo to attribute/annotation/appInfo
(i.e. the 'i' in appinfo changed to 'I' in appInfo)

I am wondering whether this might cause problems for users of a pre 3.5 Eclipse IDE when using exsd's from a 3.5 Eclipse IDE.

IfÂIÂunderstandÂwhatÂyou'reÂasking,ÂEclipseÂneverÂaimsÂtoÂbeÂforwardÂcompatible.ÂInÂreality,ÂthisÂmeansÂyouÂcan'tÂtakeÂsomethingÂlikeÂEclipseÂ3.4ÂandÂpointÂitÂtoÂaÂEclipseÂ3.5Âtarget.ÂEclipseÂaimsÂtoÂbeÂbackwardsÂcompatible. Eclipse 3.5 should be able to deal with both of those formats.

AÂbetterÂforumÂforÂthisÂdiscussionÂwouldÂbeÂonÂtheÂEclipseÂPDEÂforumsÂ(orÂnewsgroups)
