Addons execution order changed in Eclipse 4.4 [message #1397247] Wed, 09 July 2014 12:43 Go to next message

Hello,


I'm working on a pure e4 application, that basically only contains an Application.e4xmi and defines a LifeCycleHandler with corresponding life cycle annotations.

I need the product highly modular therefore I rely on the E4 extension parsing to load modules.

Each module starts, registers and do things through its x.y.z.ModuleNameAddon defined within a fragment.e4xmi, eventually with other model things (perspectives, parts, etc.).

With Eclipse 4.3, addons were executed respecting the order of required plugins : if a plugin A required a plugin B, the BAddon was executed before AAddon.

In Eclipse 4.4 it seems this order isn't respected anymore which causes me many problems. Was it done on purpose or is it a regression ?

The problem may have been introduced when refactoring ModelAssembler.topoSort() to ExtensionsSort().sort()


I remain at your disposal for any further information.


Regards,

Pierre GAUTIER

Oh well, thanks for your quick answer.

Sorry Pierre.

I thought we had code that would loop through fragments with still-unresolved imports until it reached a fixpoint, such that this topological sort was intended to be an optimization.
