Re: [handly-dev] Support older Eclipse targets

[Vladimir Piskarev <pisv@xxxxx>]

Hi Vlad,

Yes, please file a bugzilla for this valid enhacement request. Thanks!

As I've said, I think it could be addressed in the 0.2.1 release.

A look at the Xtext 2.7 Target Environments [1] suggests that the Xtext support for older
Eclipse versions will probably present no problem as they seem to target Eclipse 3.6
as the base platform.

But there is a natural tension for a new project between trying to support older Eclipse targets
for potentially broader adoption and the associated costs of doing so.

What would be the minimal Eclipse version you think we should support at the moment?

Best regards,
Vladimir
