[news.eclipse.platform] Re: ¡¾how to obtain the detailed bug information

["Prakash G.R." <grprakash@xxxxxxxxx>]

The bugs are available in Bugzilla: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/

You can search for the bugs based on Product/Component/Target Milestone. I'm 
pretty sure that Bugzilla will support some sort of API which you can use 
for automated retrieval.

But I doubt that you might find information about a bug with respect to a 
class or a line number.
