Re: [tycho-user] Estimated release date of 0.21.0?

[Doug Schaefer <dschaefer@xxxxxxx>]

Thanks Jan, I've been configuring the compiler and it's working well. So I can assume that 21's move to Luna JDT likely won't happen until Luna is released? Or will it be sooner?

Thanks,

Doug

both tycho 0.20.0 and 0.21.0-SNAPSHOT still use the Kepler JDT compiler by default.

 

You can configure tycho-compiler-plugin to use a custom JDT compiler version though, see e.g. eclipse platform build:

Speaking of Java 8, I tried the snapshot yesterday and it still doesn't seem to have the latest compiler in it. Or am I wrong on that? I'm writing a tutorial on JavaFX in Java 8 and would like to show a magic free way of building.

 

Thanks,

Doug

no ETA for 0.21.0 yet. Probably shortly after Luna I guess since we want an officially released and stable Java-8 capable JDT compiler.

 

Regarding bug 431793, a workaround is mentioned in the bug.

Can you live with a workaround until 0.21.0 is released?

Hello,

We would like to use Tycho version 0.21.0 because we are affected by bug 431793. Is this release planned before the Luna release? We would like to build our project with a released version of Tycho in time for Luna so it would be good to know.

Regards,
Marc-Andre
