[jdt-core-dev] [1.5] JDT 1.5 update available - Cheetah 03
|
Dear 1.5 fans,
The Cheetah is now able to digest generic methods and perform type
inference.
It also recognizes the Object.getClass() method and perform adequate
substitutions (see 57784).
Additionally, the new Cheetah does address the following defects:
58715 [1.5] The return type is incompatible
58631 [1.5] Cycle in hierarchy no longer detected
57784 [1.5] Object.getClass() need to be treated special ?
57784 [1.5] Errors using Arrays.asList(T [])
58461 [1.5] java.lang.VerifyError from enhanced for loop
53036 Incorrect highlighting for type problem in qualified type name
Please retrieve Cheetah03 from our update site, and find more info at:
http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/index.cgi/%7Echeckout%7E/jdt-core-home/r3.0/main.html#updates
Several people have reported installation issues. These are bugs in Eclipse
itself.
As a workaround, when installing the Cheetah, the platform will usually
crash during restart;
simply exit and restart once more. It should work ok from thereon, don't
try to do anything
before you do so.
As usual, if you find issues with it (and yes, you will <g>), then please
enter a bug report against JDT Core, where you prefix the problem title
with "[1.5]" so we can easily identify these issues; and please also
mention the version of the Cheetah you are riding (see Eclipse help about
plug-in details: e.g. Eclipse Java Development Tools Core 3.0.0.cheetah03).
We are now looking at covariance & bridge method support.
The JDT Core team
