Hi, 
 
Anyone know of a WTP 1.0 to 1.5 API/extension points migration guide ? 
 
I'm currently struggling with porting from 1.0 XML handling to WTP 1.5. 
I get no warning nor compile errors; but nothing is working ;( 
 
So I have the feeling some extension point has changed name or behavior 
so any tips appreciated ;)

Max, I don't think its just content type IDs, it should be true for any   
extension ID. 
For details, see https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=128866 
 
Funny thing is ... this was the whole reason for the 'a' part of 3.2M5a. 
And ... as part of the "workaround" was that the new namespace naming rules 
should have an effect only if you update your plugin to say 
<?eclipse version="3.2"?> 
 
That is, ID's with dot's should still work if the PI at top of eclipse   
plugin 
still says <?eclipse version="3.2"?> 
 
(And, BTW, the platform team would say the rule of "no dot's in ID names"   
is not not new ... just a new 
enforcement of them :) 
 
So, if you did not use 3.2 in PI, that might be worth opening a new bug   
related to bug 128866. 
If you did use 3.2, then you were not only breaking original syntax rules   
on IDs, but you 
even asked for the new enforcement of them :)

That is the bug thingy I remembered.

I did not update any plugin.xml to 3.2.

Which i'm quite fine with; but they could be good sports and make the PDE   
editor warn about them ;)
