| RE: [wtp-dev] Faceted Project Framework API to use Java 5languagefeatures |
|
Chuck spotted a problem in the previous
patch with how facet.ui referred to the facet.core plugin. Once I fixed the
problem, I was able to export the binaries using PDE. Thanks, Chuck! I attached both the binaries and the
correct patch to the bug. - Konstantin From:
wtp-dev-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:wtp-dev-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Konstantin Komissarchik The source code for the change to the
Faceted Project Framework plugins is available as a patch attached to the
following bug. The patch is for org.eclipse.wst.common.project.facet.core and
facet.ui plugins. The plugin version numbers have not been incremented in the
patch so it will work with any recent I-build. I will make a binary build
available to make it easier for people to try out this change as soon as I
figure out why PDE is trying to find version 0.0.0 of the plugin that I am
trying to export. https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=173380 Please report any problems with the patch
in the bug rather than on the mailing list. Thanks, - Konstantin From:
wtp-dev-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:wtp-dev-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Konstantin Komissarchik PMC just approved the plan to let Faceted Project Framework
use Java 5 language features for WTP 2.0 release. This e-mail details the plan
of action. First of all, changes to the API to use generics are fully
source and binary backwards compatible with existing clients. Wherever
enhancing the API to use Java 5 language features would have caused API
breakage, the changes were not made. I have the changes ready locally and we
will roll them out as follows: 1. Fix the version ranges on all of the referring plugins so
that they will be able to accept the new version of the Faceted Project
Framework plugins. See my previous e-mail for information regarding this. I
have made the necessary changes locally on my machine and can release them
unless I hear objections from plugin owners. I’d like this step to be
completed as soon as possible. How about right after this week’s I-build
is declared? 2. Once #1 is complete and we have a build ready that
includes that change, I will send an e-mail to this mailing list containing the
new version of the Faceted Project Framework plugins. They will be compiled and
ready to drop into an existing build for testing. The interested parties at
this point can try out these plugins and report any problems. 3. Assuming that #2 goes smoothly and any reported problems
are corrected, the changes to the Faceted Project Framework will be released
into the build right after M5 is declared. Then we will have all of M6 to flush
out any lingering issues. Questions? Comments? - Konstantin _______________________________________________________________________ Notice: This email message, together with any attachments, may contain information of BEA Systems, Inc., its subsidiaries and affiliated entities, that may be confidential, proprietary, copyrighted and/or legally privileged, and is intended solely for the use of the individual or entity named in this message.
