[mdt-papyrus.dev] Rip Pdoc

[MAGGI Benoit <Benoit.MAGGI@xxxxxx>]

Hi Team,

 

There is currently a sub project called “pdoc” in Papyrus.

It was intended to add some description for each plugins but was never widely used (less than 30 plugins).

The plugins are still in developer directory and are not deployed,  a newcomer won’t understand what these files are for.

 

I believe that we should use the Bundle-Description properties and add other information in the pom.xml.

(I already talked about that with most of the team)

 

So here are the next steps (for mars):

-          Create a bug : https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=457266

-          Remove all pdoc files and plugins from repository (The work is still on progress ) : https://git.eclipse.org/r/#/c/39401/

o   The description in pdoc will be moved to MANIFEST.MF\Bundle-Description

-          Add a text in the wiki to explain all of that.

 

If anyone is against it, “speak now or forever hold your peace” J

 

Regards

Benoit
