| [cdt-dev] New CDT -> Launchbar dependency in 9.0m6 |
|
Hi CDT Gang, We noticed that since CDT 9.0m6 , there is a new dependency on the LaunchBar which
broke our builds [1] since our target platform wasn’t prepared to pull in the LaunchBar: ·
org.eclipse.cdt.feature.feature.group è org.eclipse.cdt.gnu.build.feature.group à org.eclipse.cdt.build.gcc.core 1.0.0 à org.eclipse.launchbar.core 2.0.0 This rises some questions: 1.
Is this dependency actually necessary? I thought that Launchbar was supposed to be optional. 2.
UI: can you confirm that launchbar UI will remain optional for CDT in 9.x ? 3.
Dependency: cdt-9.0m6a.zip doesn’t include launchbar.core, so how are “stand-alone users” supposed to install CDT now ?
o
Simrel apparently pulls it form
http://download.eclipse.org/tools/cdt/launchbar/neon.m6 , can this be included in future Milestone Announcements ? 4.
Namespace: Has the “org.eclipse.launchbar” namespace been agreed on with simrel ? To be clear, we appreciate all the usability work going into the CDT recently. But unfortunately the Launchbar
conflicts with our product approach for maintaining remote connections, so it’s really important for us
that the Launchbar UI remains optional for the CDT. Looking forward to your input ! [1]
