AW: [geclipse-dev] Eclipse 3.3 and 3.2
|
Hi all, hi Mathias
Puhhh!
1. I agree that we did not face to many problems in the past with Europa neither that we will face them in the future. The tests from Ariel were promising. As Mathias mentioned, most incompatiblity problems come from "dirty" implementations.
2. I would like to continue now with Callisto as the main plattform. Not all Eclipse user will immediately switch to Europa. And our first "users" can prefer to stay with callisto. So my proposal is to stay with Callisto and to set up a second build and test system for Europa already. This will enable us to move smoothly to 3.3.
3. concerning the development stream, there might be some impacts from the two versions. But here we have to clarify the possible solutions! What can be done to prevent a "code divergence"? ....

>>Hi All,

>>3.3 release. I also think that we therefore should fully

>>things like backward compatibility. Nevertheless I also think

>>Callisto nor to Europa. Ariel already did some evaluation

>>most often it was no problem to adapt g-Eclipse to Europa.
>>The difficult parts are the parts where we did not implement
>>properly, like the parts where internal stuff of other
>>plugins was used. But such stuff has to vanish till our RC1,
>>regardless of if we are going for Europa or not.

>>Thx, Mathias

>>Hi *,

>>3.3 Release. It is

>>available at the
>>end of June...

>>In our project kick-off last year we agreed to use Eclipse
>>3.2 (Callisto) as a
>>platform to develop the g-Eclipse framework and tooling. Now
>>I want to know:
>>
>>- What would be the best time to make the switch?
>>- Do we need the backward compatibility to the 'old' version 3.2?
>>- Do we provide two development streams, i.e. one 3.2 and
>>another for 3.3?
>>- Which areas of our code need to be changed? Are there
>>incompatibilities?
>>- Are there any new features in 3.3 that are required for our
>>future work?
>>- What else?
>>
>>What are your opinions?
>>
>>Regards
