[news.eclipse.technology.ajdt] Re: Binary cycles while exporting RCP pro

[Andrew Eisenberg <andrew.eisenberg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Binary cycles when exporting are not currently supported in AJDT, but there
is a bug open for this:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=268667

There is a patch, which I am planning on integrating soon.  Please add your
name to the cc there and you will be notified of its progress.

The patch will only be applied to the 3.5 stream as Eclipse 3.4 does not
allow binary cycles.
