[eclipse-pmc] API additions to
jdt.ui

Please respond to
eclipse-pmc@eclip
se.org
Request for 2 new API constants used to decorate the image of 'volatile'
and 'transient' fields.
JavaElementImageDescriptor is API and every supported decorations is
represented by a constant. By adding the 2 new decorations we should also
add the corresponding constants.
JavaElementImageDescriptor.VOLATILE
JavaElementImageDescriptor.TRANSIENT
Note that only fields can be 'volatile' and 'transient' and these modifiers
are quite rarely used. Most clients use the JavaElementLabelProvider that
will provide the new decorations without any changes required by clients.
See bug 6553 for the discussion why it is safe to add these decorators.
GOALS/BENEFITS:
- support for 'volatile' and 'transient' image decorators for consistency
reasons
- for API consistency reasons all possible decorations should be
represented by a constant in JavaElementImageDescriptor
CORRESPONDING BUG(S):
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=6553
RISKS:
No risk, all API additions.
PERFORMANCE IMPACTS:
No performance impact _______________________________________________
