Hi group, 
 
I usually try to keep my Eclipse installation (win2k system) up-to- 
date, that is, I tend to use the most recent integration builds. Now,  
the latest integration builds all show a few unit test  
errors/failures. For example, the I20040309 shows 16 unit test errors  
in total, and 12 compile-time warnings. 
 
I'm just wondering wether it is reasonably safe to install these  
builds. I'm not shocked by a bug that shows its head now and then,  
but I would definitely not like Eclipse to mess up my projects, for  
instance. 
 
I'm sure some of you people use the latest integration builds no  
matter what. So I'm asking: what's your experience with them? Do unit  
test failures generally indicate serious bugs, or not? 
 
Thanks in advance, 
Wald

You best bet is to follow the build discussions on the platform-releng-dev 
mailing list. 
 
Each team will usually indicate the severity of any test failures and their 
impact on the usability of the builds. 
 
There already has been another build I20040310 :-) 
 
Thanks for using the integration builds, 
Darins
