Cool. That's what I ended up doing. The assumption I guess is that we haven't broken it up until 8.2.0 (but we have…).

What error message do you get for core.parser.util.ArrayUtils? All changes there should be binary compatible. In few cases we consciously made changes that are formally not backward compatible, but should not hurt anybody, for example by removing public access from Messages classes that were made public by oversight.

Hi Doug,

Which version/branch are you building? If you're using master, your API baseline should be 8.2.0.

Hey gang,

I just rebuilt my dev environment since switching machines (still a Mac but one that isn't broken). I set up the API baseline against 8.0.0 and get a few compatibility problems, for example lots of changes in RefreshScopeManager, some new @ restrictions on a few interfaces in the AST and model, and template changes in core.parser.util.ArrayUtils.

Since no one seemed to complain about these, no one seemed to be affected.

So my question is, what version are people using for API baseline? Should we create problem filters for the errors from 8.0.0?

BTW, I have a feeling we talked about this a long time ago, but can't recollect the answer.

Thanks,

Doug.
