Currently, DTP contributes version 1.14 to the aggregation, which actually has compile time errors against the Oxygen platform. The contributed build was produced for Oxygen M4. It appears that some time after that, a breaking change was made in the platform, but the major version of the bundle in question was not incremented. So aggregation wasn’t blocked requiring action from DTP, but presumably some subset of DTP functionality has not functioned as of Oxygen. Aleksandar Kurtakov did find and report the issue in May [1], but as folks probably know, DTP isn’t actively staffed by anyone, so non-blocking issues aren’t likely to get the time of day from anyone.

That’s enough history. I spent some time today to prepare a DTP 1.14.1 build that addresses this issue, but I don’t have the time to test this build or to shepherd the change into aggregation. Frankly, I can’t even tell you what functionality is currently broken. DTP is a large functional area and I am not an expert. I only got involved to unjam the last aggregation issue.

 

So, if someone is interested in testing DTP 1.14.1 and shepherding it into Oxygen.2 or another release, I will make a build available shortly.

 

Thanks,
