[mylar-dev] Internal Code
|
Is there a policy on the use of internal code in Mylar Components? I am
currently investigating the Time-Line view (Bug #109457
<https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=109457>), and during our
initial development, we are making use of internal GEF code. There are
several GEF Ruler classes that need to be extended, however, these
classes are all marked internal. I will work with the GEF team to get
these classes out of the internal packages, and into the stable API, but
this may take time. In the meantime we have several warnings because of
this. I currently see three solutions.
1) Leave the warnings
2) Disable "internal code warnings"
3) Copy the GEF code we need to our project.
I have also thought about using the "suppress warnings" annotation, but
this doesn't seem to work for access rule warnings. (Plus we are trying
to keep this component available to Java1.4 users too).
Cheers,
Ian
