<p>Now that the 2.0 release and the 2.0.1 patch have been delivered, we are focusing on the |

<a href="http://www.eclipse.org/eclipse/development/eclipse_project_plan_2_1.html">Eclipse 2.1</a> deliverable. |
Component Planning</a> page for details of current work, milestone plans, |
| 59 |
Specifically, here are some of our goals for the next little while:</p> |
and test plans.</p> |
|
|
|
|
<p><a name="Milestone_Planning"></a><em>Milestone 1 (2.1 M1)</em> - September 20, 2002</p> |
|
|
<ul> |
|
|
<li>The rigid structure of projects in Eclipse is a problem with a lot of users' existing project layouts. |
|
|
See <a href="http://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=6664">bug 6664</a> for more information. |
|
|
For this milestone we would like to have a proposal ready and posted to this web space for comment by the open source community. |
|
|
Once posted, comments should be sent to the <a href="http://dev.eclipse.org/mailman/listinfo/platform-core-dev">platform-core-dev@eclipse.org</a> |
|
|
mailing list. <i>Note: this item has been pushed back to M2 with the creation of a new team to address the problem. See below for details.</i> |
|
|
</li> |
|
|
<li>Work towards building tools which will help with crash recovery and |
|
|
analysis of metadata files on disk.</li> |
|
|
<li>General bug fixing.</li> |
|
|
</ul> |
|
|
|
|
|
<p><em>Milestone 2 (2.1 M2)</em> - October 18, 2002</p> |
|
|
<ul> |
|
|
<li>Progress on the project structure problem has been made. A dynamic team has been formed and a "Problem Definition" document |
|
|
has been <a href="http://www.eclipse.org/eclipse/development/inflexible-projects-problem.html">posted</a> to eclipse.org. |
|
|
The goal for M2 is to have the proposal (including solution) finalized and posted.</li> |
|
|
<li>Continued work on tools and examples. Check the <a href="dev.html">Development |
|
|
Resources</a> for progress...tools plug-ins will be posted there.</li> |
|
|
<li>General bug fixing and triage work on backlog of bugs in the Inbox.</li> |
|
|
</ul> |
|
|
|
|
|
<p><em>Milestone 3 (2.1 M3)</em> - November 15, 2002</p> |
|
|
<ul> |
|
|
<li>Project Structure - You've seen the links to the <a href="http://www.eclipse.org/eclipse/development/inflexible-projects-problem.html">problem |
|
|
definition</a> and <a href="http://www.eclipse.org/eclipse/development/towards-more-flexible-projects.html">possible |
|
|
solutions</a>. A third document with the <a href="http://www.eclipse.org/eclipse/development/flexible-projects-proposal.html">proposed |
|
|
solution</a> is now posted. The specific Platform/Core required work for M3 includes: |
|
|
<ul> |
|
|
<li>new API for creating links to files and folders |
|
|
<li>javadoc changes to existing API (copy/move/delete) |
|
|
<li>ammended Natures doc - adding new attribute for veto-power |
|
|
<li>new API for workspace path variables to be used with linked resources |
|
|
<li>new Team hook for link veto-power |
|
|
<li>new API for mapping from a file-system location to workspace resource(s), |
|
|
and vice versa |
|
|
</ul> |
|
|
<li>Circular Build Dependancies - A dynamic team to address this problem has been created. The work required for the |
|
|
Platform/Core team for the M3 milestone consists of new API for computing the default project build order and a new |
|
|
algorithm for calculating the build order when there are cycles involved. (related bugs: |
|

|
|
<li>Features - A dynamic team consisting of Dean, Jeff, Dejan, Christophe, and DJ has been created to address all the problems |
|
|
that the Release Engineering team has with features. Once an appropriate solution has been identified, there will be |
|
|
significant work in the PDE-Build component (which is owned by Platform/Core) for both the M3 and M4 milestones. |
|
|
<li>General Bug Fixing. |
|
|
</ul> |
|
|
|
|
|
<p><em>Milestone 4 (2.1 M4)</em> - December 13, 2002</p> |
|
|
<ul> |
|
|
<li>Project Structures - Finish up work related to flexible project layout. List includes multi-resource delta notification |
|
|
for over-lapping linked resources. (related bugs: <a href="http://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=25993">25993</a>) |
|
|
<li>Classloader Performance - In M2 we put in a classloader performance enhancement in which the plug-in classloader |
|
|
used information in a file to determine whether or not it should look in itself for a particular class. We want to allow |
|
|
users to put this information in the mark-up in their plugin.xml files. (related bugs: <a href="http://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=24667">24667</a> |

|
|
<li>Continued progress on PDE-Build in the space related to the Features dynamic team. |
|
|
<li>New feature to allow local history to persist across certain refactoring actions. (related bug: |
|
