5. Java 8 compatibility/support and Eclipse 4.x (Luna)        

·         Branch version: Repository has been branched

·         Build process: Slow on this

DISCUSSION

·         Jamie: If we move to newer version of Java, users will have to regenerate their models, start fresh workspace; but will continue to have problems if we don’t move

·         Chris: In favor of updates; Eclipse 4 looks better

·         Chris: Problem he had with STEM runtime eliminated when he deleted a plug-in

DECISION

·         Jamie: Do 2.0.3 build, then Milestone 1 (See item 1); build future developments on Milestone

TO DO: Chris will help

·         Three 3 deprecated warnings left in popups; need to check plugin.xml

·         Jamie will check the one he has fixed on model.ui; will add new code to branch

·         Chris will replace (but leave in for time being) Action Classes with Handler Classes in UI commands
