| Re: [wb-dev] WindowBuilder 1.15.0 Release |
Hey everyone,
I'm happy to announce that WindowBuilder 1.15.0 was released without
hickups as part of the 2024-03 release and can be consumed from the
following repositories:
https://download.eclipse.org/releases/2024-03
https://download.eclipse.org/windowbuilder/updates/release/1.15.0
Highlight of this release is the support for jakarta annotations in the
E4 views, as well as lambda expressions for event listeners.
Furthermore, this is also the first release without dependency to
Digester3 and Guava. Former hasn't been updated in well over a decade
and also pulls in nasty transitive dependencies such as Commons-Logging,
Commons-Lang and Commons-Collections. Parsing of the wbp component files
is instead done via JAXB. Latter has been replaced by
Commons-Collections4, given that both libraries provide effectively the
same functionality.
Sadly, this is also end of the XWT support. Partially due to increasing
incompatibilities with the latest Eclipse releases (like a dependency to
javax), as well as a general lack of activity on their repository.
Regards,
Patrick
