[news.eclipse.rt] PDE API Tools

["Paul Warren" <warren_paul@xxxxxxx>]

Hi Folks,

Apologies for the cross post.  I tried posting to eclipse.pde but I was not
authorized to do so.

I'm trialling the pde api tools for use within our organization and I'm
seeing some behavior that I dont understand.  Hopefully someone will be able
to explain the rational.

I have a reference plugin v1.0.0 (my baseline)

I have a separate identical copy of that plugin imported into my workspace
(the working copy).

I create a baseline using the reference copy.

I enable the working copy for api analysis.

And I immediately get an error stating:-

"The minor version should be incremented in version 1.0.0.qualifier, since
new APIs have been added since version 1.0.0.qualifier."

But I havent yet changed the plugin at all.

I would not expect this sort of error to appear until I make the first
change.  Is this an incorrect expectation?  If so, why?

Mnay thanks
_Paul
