[cross-project-issues-dev] Moving org.eclipse.core.resources plug-in to

[Szymon Brandys <Szymon.Brandys@xxxxxxxxxx>]

We are planning to move core.resources to Java 1.5 in Eclipse 3.7.

Some of benefits are:
- making use of i18n libraries that aren't available elsewhere (e.g., high
surrogate support) to fix bugs like
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=310623
 - modernizing core.resources API and using generics, varargs, enums, etc,
where
appropriate
 - moving to Java 5 data structures that we previous had to maintain copies
of: Queue, CopyOnWriteList, etc.

For further details or to comment on this, see:

Thanks
