Re: [modeling-pmc] Xtext blocking issue - request for respin of 2018-09

Hi

If Xtext has an IP issue on org.eclipse.xtext.util.Strings then does OCL have a problem with

http://git.eclipse.org/c/ocl/org.eclipse.ocl.git/tree/plugins/org.eclipse.ocl.pivot/src/org/eclipse/ocl/pivot/utilities/StringUtil.java

which has two routines commented as e.g.

    /**
     * Mostly copied from {@link java.util.Properties#loadConvert} via
     * {@link org.eclipse.xtext.util.Strings#convertFromJavaString}
     */

I must confess that I considered JVM code as fair game, particularly private statics such as:

    private static char toHex(int nibble) {
        return hexDigit[(nibble & 0xF)];
    }

    /** A table of hex digits */
    private static final char[] hexDigit = {
        '0','1','2','3','4','5','6','7','8','9','A','B','C','D','E','F'
    };

that are too trivial to 'worry' about.

    Regards

Karsten,

Given that Xtext 2.15 is included in SimRel and given that this version currently does not pass IP approval, it seems clear that we simply cannot release SimRel 2018-09 in its current state.

So I reluctantly give this a +1.  :-(

And of course, given we're re spinning anyway, definitely +1 for including the fix for Corrosion in that respin.

Regards,
Ed

Dear PMC & cross-project members,

the Xtext team is apologising for speaking up in the quiet week of 2018-09 SimRel. A review on our 2.15.0 release revealed IP issues in the code base, which required immediate action. The issue is tracked in Bug#539108 [1]. We are solving the issue with highest priority and will provide our fixed release to SimRel until Monday Sep 17th.

We are hereby asking Eclipse Modeling PMC to support our request for a respin. This could also help project Corrosion, which has also an issue in RC2 [2].

With kind regards,
~Karsten
