OK, I see that the Generic Editor adds similar support as the DSL with regards to code completion. I added that to my newest blog post. One question with regards to the m2e PDE Integration. Does it also generate a MANIFEST if the Maven artifact is already an OSGi bundle,
or is this step skipped in that case? As the documentation only talks about using non-OSGi bundles, it is not clear to me what happens to existing bundles. Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Best regards Von: tycho-dev <tycho-dev-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxx> Im Auftrag von

This comes as no surprise and I remember some concerns were emitted from some PDE contributors about TP-DSL from day 1: any alternative language to do the same thing as a standard one and transpiling to the standard one will have to invest
a lot in keeping up to date with new standard features. By using a new language for the same thing, TP-DSL bascially introduced a factory of technical debt, that people who started to rely on will need to cover now. It would have been much more sustainable
if the things that make TP-DSL better were at least attempted to be implemented in the standard .target format... Good luck finding contributors for this TP-DSL! In the meantime, if you're willing to open specific bugs against PDE that would allow to make the .target file more usable, that would be welcome; and it may get some more attention as there are more active contributors on PDE than on the
TP-DSL. |
