Re: [cross-project-issues-dev] Windowbuilder is broken in the release tr

[Ed Merks <ed.merks@xxxxxxxxx>]

Wim,

The org.eclipse.e4.rcp feature depends on EMF like this:

   <requires>
      <import feature="org.eclipse.emf.common" version="2.7.0" match="compatible"/>
      <import feature="org.eclipse.emf.ecore" version="2.7.0" match="compatible"/>
   </requires>

I believe that is what allows these EMF features to be independently updated within the compatible range while ensuring that installing that feature also installs these EMF features.   (Note how very, very old the lower bound is, given EMF 2.23 just released.)

Regards,
Ed

Hi,

I see that all our wb features are in the release train, which can be confusing. Should I make a top-level feature just for the RT depending on the current RT features? If so can the features then be individually updated?

Thanks,

Wim

Thanks, Ed. It was worth a try.

Wim,

I suppose one alternative is to respin the train repo, but that's a big undertaking, especially trying to get it to have consistently the same contents as what it current has, other than the updated Window Builder.

Another alternative might be to compose your release repository into the train composite.   But you have categories in your update site and those would likely become visible.  So probably not a good idea either.

I suspect there is no good/feasible solution at this late point.  :-(

Regards,
Ed

Hi,

Due to an API break, the version of windowbuilder in the release train is not working anymore.

Can this be fixed in some way?

I have a release that works.

Best regards,

Wim
