[edt-dev] Attention all 0.8.1 users; SysLib.getResource is now Resources.getResource

jvincens@xxxxxxx (Joseph Vincens) — Mon, 14 May 2012 19:28:29 GMT

Part of the 0.8.1 work is to re-factor our existing code for improved extensibility. We strive to do this unobtrusively, but there are times when we make a change that will affect your code.
One of these changes recently made was to move SysLib.getResource to Resources.getResource.
When using code written with 0.8.0 in 0.8.1 you will need to change SyLib.getResource to Resources.getResource.

[edt-dev] EDT 0.8 is finished, CVS is open

mheitz@xxxxxxx (Matthew Heitz) — Tue, 10 Apr 2012 18:28:03 GMT

Hi everybody,

The last problem with the 0.8 release has been resolved, so you can start committing code to CVS for EDT 0.8.1. The contents of 0.8 have been tagged with "EDT080GM", and nightly builds have been turned on again.

We haven't announced 0.8 yet. We're still waiting for the completion of the Eclipse release review, and a few other things like the "What's New in EDT 0.8?" webpage need to be finished. We expect to make the announcement on Friday.

Thanks for all your great work.

[edt-dev] EDT nightly builds are off

mheitz@xxxxxxx (Matthew Heitz) — Tue, 03 Apr 2012 13:30:13 GMT

The 0.8 release is almost finished, so I have turned off the automatic nightly builds. We'll run builds on demand from now on.

[edt-dev] future: EDT will use Git not CVS

mheitz@xxxxxxx (Matthew Heitz) — Fri, 23 Mar 2012 14:29:14 GMT

Hi EDT,

I'm writing to give you some advance notice of a big change in the way we develop EDT. It will happen sometime this summer.

For years, Eclipse has provided three kinds of repositories for its projects' source code: CVS, Subversion, and Git. We chose CVS because many of us were familiar with it, and it worked well. Unfortunately, Eclipse is ending support for CVS on Dec 21 of this year. CVS at eclipse.org will become read-only. They're also planning to end support for Subversion eventually (a date has not been set yet), so we will be moving to Git.

We'll make the change after RBD 8.5 is finished, which will probably be in mid-June. I opened Bug 375113 to track the work. Please use that bug to ask questions and to share any helpful information you have about Git.

Personally, I know *nothing* about Git except how to spell it. My role in the move to Git will be to create the new repository and move our source code (including the change history). I expect that we'll put together some kind of educational package before the migration happens. I may help with that too.

A starting point for learning about Git is http://wiki.eclipse.org/Git#Committers_new_to_Git . If you'd like to experiment with it, you could check out git://dev.eclipse.org/org.eclipse.edt/org.eclipse.edt.git . It's a read-only Git repository that mirrors our CVS repository.

Everything went well, and Milestone 3 is done. You can commit to CVS again, and builds will resume this morning.

[edt-dev] EDT 0.8 Milestone 3

mheitz@xxxxxxx (Matthew Heitz) — Thu, 15 Mar 2012 20:32:22 GMT

Hi there.

The first EDT 0.8 Milestone 3 candidate build is complete. Installation testing will begin soon, and M3 will be finished once we're satisfied. In the meantime, nightly builds are disabled and you must not commit any changes to CVS.

The M3 update site is http://download.eclipse.org/edt/milestones/1.0/

mheitz@xxxxxxx (Matthew Heitz) — Thu, 08 Mar 2012 14:18:51 GMT

Hello EDT,

This is a friendly reminder to release changes after you commit them. We've had a few builds fail recently due to unreleased changes.
