[eclipse-dev] Planning Meeting Notes - Mar 5, 2003

[Mike_Wilson@xxxxxxxxxx]

JDT/Core:
- 28 active PRs (only P3s), 2 remaining for RC2, 42
fixes released
  during RC2 cycle
- incorrect indexing suspicions got resolved
- fixed a rare scenario where the Java builder would
scrub the entire
  project when building (need some direct edit
of .classpath file to make
  output be project + shutdown/restart), also
backported this fix into
  2.0.x stream.
- fixed deadlock scenarii where the JavaModel lock
would compete with
  other locks (there should no longer be any
3rd party code invoked while
  the JavaModel lock got acquired)
- lowered memory requirement of search, so as to improve
the
  out-of-the-box experience (in particular, default
VM setting will
  succeed in finding the 4500 references to java.lang.String
in JRE
  with attached sources).
- type hierarchy speed improvement over 2.1-M5 (was
a speed regression)

Ant:
- moved to Ant 1.5.2
- fixed 36 defects in fix pass (so far)

Debug:
- fixed 53 defects in fix pass (so far)
