I agree totally with tom ; If JDK1.5 is available in very few months,
Eclipse should be also ready for it. In my opinion, many refactoring
enhancements or other features which are planned are very fine, but is
less important than havinf the IDE ready to use JDK1.5 when this one will
be available as release. I'm of ones who will use loop, generic, metadata,
autoboxing when it will be available, because these notions are missing
today.

One of the difficulties in adding 1.5 support to eclipse is that the
language specification
is not yet complete, and sometimes running "javac" is the only reference.
For example, the JLS proposal for autoboxing does not specify the
process of disambiguating
overloaded method calls. The generics document is quite old, and even if
it describes method
disambiguation, you know nothing about how that works together with
autoboxing.
I agree that JDK 1.5 support should be top priority, but it looks like
it isn't that simple ...

I've written about this before but I can't resist writing again to support
Tom
and urge that 1.5 support be given a very high priority and that every
effort be made to include it in 3.0. Unfortunately, there is a free
competitor
for Eclipse that will support 1.5. Its called netbeans and it comes from
Sun.
I too am a very happy, dedicated Eclipse user and I dread the thought of
switching. Still, if 3.0 comes out without 1.5 support, I'll have to look at
that option very closely.
Java 1.5 is available now so please don't use that as an excuse. I know
its in beta but the basics of the new language features are VERY unlikely
to change.
One more point. If the choice is releasing 3.0 on schedule without 1.5
support or delaying A LITTLE BIT and releasing it with 1.5 support,
I'd vote for the latter. The latest milestone release could be used in the
meantime.

Yes - I visited the eclipse - website and didn't find anything.
I didn't thought it could be somehow hidden.
Now I found it but it doesn't plug into my M8 2004-03-26 15:17
Do I need a newer version?
Is it true, that I shouldn't run eclipse on a j2sdk-1.5 itself?

Yes, you need I20040422 (or newer - I assume).

Yes.
